Kacey Musgraves - Family Is Family Lyrics
[Verse 1]They're there for your first year, they give you your first beerWhen you get your heart broke, they're there for your worst yearDon't get you at all, but your apple don't fall too far from 'emThey own too much wicker and drink too much liquorYou'd wash your hands of them, but blood's always thickerYou might look just like 'em; that don't mean you're like 'emBut you love 'em[Chorus]Family is family, in church or in prisonYou get what you get, and you don't get to pick 'emThey might smoke like chimneys, but give you their kidneysYeah, friends come in handy, but family is family[Verse 2]They're there when you're married, divorced, and remarriedYou fall out of touch, but then someone gets buriedAnd you're right back together like no time has ever gone byCan't live with or without 'em; you might talk about 'emBut if someone else does, well, then you'll knock 'em out causeWhen it's all said and done, they're the only ones that you got[Chorus]Family is family, in church or in prisonYou get what you get, and you don't get to pick 'emThey might smoke like chimneys, but give you their kidneysYeah, friends come in handy, but family is familyYeah, family is funny, they'll ask you for moneyEven though they know you ain't got no moneyThey show up at Christmas, get up in your businessThey might not be fancy, but family is family[Outro]You might look just like 'em; that don't mean you're like 'emBut you love 'em
