Jill Scott Family Reunion song lyrics

We at the family reunion, tellin' jokes and playin' spades

Uncle Dave is on the barbecue grill

Grandma braggin' 'bout the blanket she made

For the new baby on her way

Even though the Daddy ain't really ready

This child is comin' anyway, yeah

Neicey made her famous potato salad

Somehow it turns out green

Maybe its all the scalyums, could be the celery

But oh, uncle Jerome loves it

Hmm, hey baby baby, here comes my favorite, my favorite cousin

He says he doin' fine, takin' it one step a day

But in my heart I know it ain't that way

Whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh whoa

What can you say it's family

And whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh whoa

What can you say? It's family

Aunt Juicy been drinkin' again, ooo its only one thirty in the afternoon

Everybody tip toein' 'round her, we all know she gonna be toe up soon

Sayin' all the things we like to say

Hope she gets around to cousin Lonnie

'Cause we all know he got a little extra somebody on the side, but

Whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh whoa

What can you say it's family

And whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh whoa

What can you say? It's family

Oh shit, damn Micky and Steven are fightin' again

Move out the way, somebody might get hurt

Aww, look at that what happen is worst

They knocked over Helenora's lemon cake

You know the one she barely ever makes

I'm gettin' rilled up, I want them to go

But somebody turn Franky, Beverly on the stereo

Cousin Ruby starts rockin', shakin' her good hip and bottom

So we all fall into place, smilin' and laughin'

Whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh whoa

What can you say it's family

And whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh whoa

What can you say? It's family

Whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh whoa

What can you say? It's family

And whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh whoa

What can you say?
