| I heat up the way coffee be |
| Tasty like pastry |
| Got mo' flavors than
parsley |
| With 9 aunties and 2 uncles |
| I got a lot of cousins, so watch how you talk to me |
| Good ol' places, good ol' times, doing good ol' thangs |
| That was just the good ol' days, |
| most of my people still look the same |
| All though we deep in the numbers, |
| Our feelings is close as the lotto ya heard me |
| We originated in Louisiana way back in the 1930's |
| On the farm in the son of mister and misses Joyner and Mary Tyler |
| Hooked up with they daughter, |
| Daughter Josephine the difference do you know what I mean |
| She was on the cotton field |
| He was on the farm where the cows get killed |
| Then they moved off the plantation |
| Then ??? came in a few mo' years |
| First came Rosa Lee, then Lord June Bug, then Anna Lee |
| Then Louise and Alberta, then my mama came who they call Marie |
| Without a breather, um, here come Mary Alice, and Linda |
| Po' Grandma stayed bare foot, pregnant, and always baring |
| Don't worry be happy, whatever we got we was glad that we had it |
| After that, here come the last three, (Who was?) |
| Loyce, Alan, and Kathy |
| |
| Repeat
Chorus |
