Everybody things you’re the coolest person

I’m sure no one ever gave you a bad eye

Your beauty, charm and all the things you do

The family thinks of you as a precious child

Well you know he’s such a wild one

His mother told him you’re too good for him

He likes to drink, smoke and have boyish fun

I gave my cuz so many a warnings

But did he heed me, no no no

Does he need you, don’t think so

But if you’re thinking of leaving

Don’t want you to go

Nobody wants you to go!

You’re the finest girl I ever came to know

If I held your heart I’ll never let you go

Precious as the air I breathe everybody digs you

I never had romance I got lots to prove

Just given the chance I’m the kind you need

The whole gang will miss you if you up and leave

His love has fallen through but you deserve to be

Kept in the family!

 

Kept in the family, kept real close to me

It’s kinda funny honey but I’m not a big big dummy

Like my cousin

Who don’t give nothing

I’ve seen times he treated you bad

Left you in tears so very sad

But haven’t I always try to comfort you

I meant when I said he’s a fool

Cause you’re the type of girl who need someone

Who’ll pick you up never put you down

And I know you like this family and yes you know they like you

He’s part of another breed that this clan has so few

I care for you

Oh I really do

It maybe kinda hard and surely kinda strange

But it isn’t dumb no matter what some say

I want to keep you in contact with me

Close in emotions, spirit and physically

And you should always be

Kept in the family!
