Lyrics
It's a fam'ly affair,
(Bbmaj7)it's a (Am7)fam'ly affair.
(Dm7)It's a fam'ly affair,
(Bbmaj7)it's a (Am7)fam'ly affair.
(Gm7)One child grows up to be
somebody that (C7)just loves to learn.
And (Gm7)'nother, 'nother (C7)child grows up to (Gm7)be
somebody you just (C7)love to burn.
(Gm7)Mama loves the both of them.
You see, it's in the (C7)blood.
(Gm7)Both kids are good to Mama.
Blood's thicker than the (C7)mud, it's a fam'ly affair.
It's a fam'ly affair,
(Gm7)it's a fam'ly affair.
What of it?
(Gm7)Newlywed a year ago,
but we're still just (C7)checkin' each other out.
(Gm7)Nobody wants to gloat,
nobody wants to (C7)be left out.
(Gm7)You can't (C7)leave 'cause your heart is there.
(Gm7)But sure you can't (C7)stay 'cause you been somewhere else.
(Gm7)You can't cry (C7)'cause you'll look broke (Gm7)down,
but you're cryin' anyway 'cause you're (C7)all broke down.
It's a fam'ly affair.
(Gm7)It's a fam'ly affair,
it's a fam'ly affair.
It's a fam'ly affair,
it's a fam'ly affair.
(Dm7)It's a fam'ly affair,
(Bbmaj7)it's a (Am7)fam'ly affair.
(Dm7)It's a fam'ly affair,
(Bbmaj7)it's a (Am7)fam'ly affair.
