They let Bubba out of prison
He paid for his crime
He didn't know them bad cheques

Could give him so much timeSister's getting married
There's a shotgun on the groom
Hope they finish the wedding vows

Before the baby's due

Harry's in the closet

He's been there all his life
Everybody wonders
Why he never took a wife


We owe a lot of bills
Trying to live beyond our means

Ain't got a pot
But we got cable TV


But it's our family
Full of skeletons and ghosts
And even with our strange relatives

It's the one we love the most
There may be a bunch of nuts
Up our family tree

Yeah we may all be crazy
But it's still our family


Grandpa's got a girlfriend
A woman half his age
Grandma laughs about it

But I sense the silent rage

And Uncle Burt still thinks

He's on the grand old armoury
That fever from the war
Left him living in a dream


We buried Great Ann-Martha
Out the forest lawns today

Now I think I know why
They Called Great Ann-Martha great


The church was full of strange men
Mama called it a disgrace
She said they should have wiped that

Smile off Great Ann-Marthas face

But it's our family

Full of skeletons and ghosts
And even with our strange relatives
It's the one we love the most

There may be a bunch of nuts
Up our family tree
Yeah we may all be crazy

But its still our family
