Grandma's Hands
I did a post a while ago on Bill Withers, who passed away a couple of days ago at the age of 81. These are my two favorites, Grandma's Hands and Use Me, though he wrote many other fine songs like Ain't No Sunshine, Lean on Me, Lovely Day, and Just The Two of Us.
Grandma's Hands was written about his grandmother. The version of Use Me is live, slowed down from the recording, and features an unbelievably funky drum, bass, and clavinet.
