Family Reunion - Jill Scott

We at the family reunion

Tellin' jokes and playin' spades

Uncle Dave is on the barbeque 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 coming anyway yeah

Neicy made her famous potato salad

Somehow it turns out green

Maybe it’s all the scallions

Could be the celery

But oh Uncle Jerome loves it (Hmm)

Hey baby baby here comes my favorite

My favorite cousin

He says he doing fine

Taking it one step a day

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

Whoa whoa-o-whoa whoa-o-whoa whoa-o-whoa

What can you say it’s family

And whoa whoa-o-whoa whoa-o-whoa whoa-o-whoa

What can you say it’s family

Aunt Juicy been drinkin' again (wooh)

Its only 1:30 in the afternoon

Everybody tip-toeing 'round her

We all know she gonna be tore up soon

Saying 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-o-whoa whoa-o-whoa whoa-o-whoa

What can you say it’s family

And whoa whoa-o-whoa whoa-o-whoa whoa-o-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

Aw look at that what happen is worse

They knocked over Elenora’s Lemon Cake (Emm)

You know the one she barely ever makes

I’m gettin' riled up, I want them to go

But somebody turn Frankly Beverly on the stereo

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

So we all fall into place smiling and laughing

Whoa whoa-o-whoa whoa-o-whoa whoa-o-whoa

What can you say it’s family

And whoa whoa-o-whoa whoa-o-whoa whoa-o-whoa

What can you say it’s family (my family)
