Roches - Runs In The Family lyrics

rate me

(Words & Music by Terre Roche)<br />

<br />

I can't get over what I saw.<br />

And I can't change the law of averages.<br />

I'm going down.<br />

My uncle did it; my daddy did it.<br />

I'm beginning to think that it runs in the family<br />

Oh no, runs in the family.<br />

<br />

One by one we left home.<br />

We went so far out there.<br />

Everybody got scared.<br />

My uncle did it; my daddy did it.<br />

I'm beginning to think that it runs in the family<br />

Oh no, runs in the family.<br />

<br />

All the boys could have gone to school.<br />

All the girls were pretty enough to play the fool<br />

Something about the danger zone<br />

Wouldn't leave the bunch of us alone.<br />

<br />

I remember that night.<br />

It was the one I picked a fight with you.<br />

I'm holding the bag<br />

Just like my mama did;<br />

Just like her mama did.<br />

Now there's gonna be a new kid in the family<br />

Oh no, kid you're gonna run in the family.<br />

Oh yeah, kid you're gonna run in the family.
