It's a family affair, it's a family affair
|
It's a family affair, it's a family affair
|
One child grows up to be
|
Somebody that just loves to learn
|
And another child grows up to be
|
Somebody you'd just love to burn
|
Mom loves the both of them
|
You see it's in the blood
|
Both kids are good to Mom
|
'Blood's thicker than mud'
|
It's a family affair, it's a family affair
|
Newlywed a year ago
|
But you're still checking each other out
|
Nobody wants to blow
|
Nobody wants to be left out
|
You can't leave, 'cause your heart is there
|
But you can't stay, 'cause you been somewhere else!
|
|
You can't cry, 'cause you'll look broke down
|
But you're cryin' anyway 'cause you're all broke down!
|
|
It's a family affair
|
It's a family affair
