Jacob's Ladder Lyrics

Lyric discussion by leftandrightsofpassage 

Isn't it odd that just 5 years after they eloped, the granddaughter is described as hopping onto her grandpa's lap to ask him about her parents? That's something a 4 or 5 year old would do, meaning that Mom must have been pregnant that night, over immediately after. Maybe that explains why she ran away so fast!?

My Opinion

She was probably pregnant before they eloped.
