Family Tree - Caylee Hammack

Sister smoked all the Camels in the county last week

She cleaned out the 7-Eleven, sneakin' in, smellin' like nicotine

Mama’s burning chicken for the Tupperware party tonight

Daddy’s asleep in his chair, the TV’s blaring the stats for half time

(Whoa, whoa, oh, oh)

Well, life can get real funny

(Whoa, whoa, oh, oh)

We got more love than we got money

Some swing a little higher, some’ll just hang low

A few of us are on fire to get out, and some just wanna stay home

But it don’t matter, 'cause the roots run deep

And ain’t nothing gonna shake our family tree

Whoa, whoa, oh, oh

(Ba la la bum, ba la la, da)

Whoa, whoa, oh, oh

Gramma sold her Maytag dryer to post my uncle’s bail

He’ll be hanging her laundry till there’s a snow storm in hell

Me and my cousins, like to take a Sunday drive

And roll one up before pot luck lunch and get high school high

(Whoa, whoa, oh, oh)

Well, life can get real funny

(Whoa, whoa, oh, oh)

We got more love than we got money

Some swing a little higher, some’ll just hang low

A few of us are on fire to get out, and some just wanna stay home

But it don’t matter, 'cause the roots run deep

And ain’t nothing gonna shake our family tree

And ain’t nothing gonna shake our family tree, ooh

Whoa, whoa, oh, oh

(Ba la la bum, ba la la, da)

Whoa, whoa, oh, oh

Some of us got problems, but everybody’s alright

Some of us got big plans, some are just plannin' on gettin' by

Some of us got problems, but they love us anyway

Through thick and thin, hell, we’re still kin at the end of the day

Some swing a little higher, some’ll just hang low

A few of us are on fire to get out, and some just wanna stay home

But it don’t matter, 'cause the roots run deep

And ain’t nothing gonna shake our family tree

And ain’t nothing gonna shake our family tree

Oh, whoa, life can get real funny

Ooh, we got more love than we got money

(And ain’t nothing gonna shake our family tree) You don’t make it, ooh

Whoa, whoa, oh, oh (oh the roots run deep)

Whoa, whoa, oh, oh

Ain’t nothing, ain’t nothing gonna shake

(And ain’t nothing gonna shake our family tree) Our family tree
