Lyrics
It's a Family affair
It's a family affair
It's a family affair
One child grows up to be
Somebody that loves to learn
And another child
Grows up to be
Somebody that just loves to burn
Mother loves the both of them
You see its in the blood
Both kids good to mom
Blood's thicker than mud
It's a family affair
Ooh yeah
Going nowhere
Do doo do do do do
Do doo do do do do
Do doo do do do do
It's a family affair
Ooh
You were newly weds just a year ago
Still checking each other out
Nobody wants to blow
Nobody wants to be left out
Ohhhh oh
Can't leave cause your heart is there
And you know you can't stay
Cause you been somewhere
Can't cry 'cause you're all broke down
But you're crying anyway
'cause you're all broke now
One child he was so nice
He don't drink rum
He don't shoot dice
It's a family affair
It's a family affair
Doo do do do do
Doo
Doo do do do do
Doo
Doo do do do do
Doo
Doo do do do do
