Rodney Atkins - Family lyrics

rate me

Family reunion, 4th of July

It's been three years since I've seen it

Now I remember why

Aunt Charlotte's at the door

Big smile on her face

The first thing she says to me

Looks like you've gained some weight

You only get that kind of honesty

From family

Uncle Joe's getting plastered

Aunt Marthe's getting mad

Same old cousin Doug

Same old jokes, same old bad

Mama has to keep reminding me

Son, they're family

A few new babies, the same old crazies

I've known 'em my whole life

And they still amaze me

I didn't choose 'em

Cause you gotta love 'em

They're family

Cousin Linda showed up

With her new sweetheart

I had to laugh when daddy whispered

Fifth time might be the charm

And there's a brother Lester

In the city, just flew in

All the way from out

We're still not sure about him

But different as we are it's good to be

In family

A few new babies, the same old crazies

I've known 'em my whole life

And they still amaze me

I didn't choose 'em

Wouldn't wanna lose 'em

Cause you gotta love 'em

Man, they're family

When mama said the blessings

She was fightin back the tears

Cause the last time we were all together

Grandpa was here

She knew how proud he'd be

And how much he'd love to see

A few new babies, the same old crazies

I've known 'em my whole life

And they still amaze me

Don't get to choose 'em

But you hate to lose 'em

You gotta love 'em

Cause they're family

Family reunion, 4th of July

It's been three years since I've seen it

Now I remember why
