Family Reunion

By: David Allan Coe

MAMA TAUGHT US HOW TO SING IN HARMONY

GRANDMA USED TO STOMP HER FOOT AND SLAP HER KNEE

I CAN STILL HEAR DADDY SING DOWN BY THE OLD MILL STREAM

WHEN UNCLE JIM PLAYED THE FIDDLE

YOU COULD HEAR IT TALK - YOU COULD HEAR IT SING

AND IT ECHOED DOWN THE MOUNTAIN TO THOSE GEORGIA PINES

RAN THROUGH TENNESSEE JUST LIKE THAT OLD MOONSHINE

OLD JOE CLARK, CRIPPLE CREEK, ANNIE GET YOUR GUN



I GUESS MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE WAS THAT FOX ON THE RUN

LIKE A FOX - LIKE A FOX ON THE RUN

GRANDPA PLAYED THE DORO TILL THE BREAK OF DAWN

ME I HAD THIS GUITAR AND I'D STRUM ALONG

CAROL PLAYED THE WASHBOARD AND THE TAMBOURINE

LITTLE MARY BETH WOULD ALWAYS HELP US SING
