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.
