Nell sends birthday greetings, to you Grandma Gammy,
On this very special occasion here at Mon Ami Gabi.

Ninety-four grand years ago, there in Sioux City,
You were born into the world – a small lovely baby.

Then you spent your youth in California.

As a young woman you went to USC
And pledged, and pledged Pi Beta Phi…
Pi Beta Phi: a Woman’s Fraternity.

You spent a lot of time performing and singing.

At one such occasion,
You met your husband, Tom.

Three daughters, three daughters: Sheryl, Bonnie, Marianne,
Grand kids and great-grand kids
All came from this union.

Oh, happy birthday,
To you dear Gammy from little Nell
Whom you can tell
Remembers well,

The time you took her to the opera
To see your favorite show,
That is, Madama Butterfly
She just wanted to let you know

She thinks you are sharp, fashionable, sassy
And really awesome, that’s why I sing the song.
Happy Birthday!
