Lyrics Family Reunion - Jill Scott

Family Reunion

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)
