Capo 1
Intro: G
GIt was the thirty first gathering of the Thompsons, JoAmneses, and Smiths
There were taGbles full of chicken, taters, collard greens, and gDrits
Well it aGll took place at Hatie Lake State PAark
Volleyball, fiGshin', badmitton, yard darts
Aunt IAmrene said she'd never seen a turnout like tDhis
Well it sGtarted with hand shakes and lordy, how the babies have grown
As the sun got hotter the day got to draggin' alDong
I sGaw Uncle Gene comin' back from his car
With soCmethin' clear as water in a mason jGar
The lemonade got hearty and, LoDrdy, the party was Gon
Chorus
That Col' boom box got louder and louder
AcGtin' civilzed didn't seem to matter
EvCerybody got to showin' their hiney includin' Dme
Lord I'd neGver known Granny to take her a sip
But the woCrds were a slurrin' comin' off of her lips
And it daGwned on me white ligDhtnin' hit the family tGree
GWell cousin Johnny was a gator Jimmy was a UT fan
And that football talk was quickly gettin out of hDand
Granny tGold Uncle Dave that she hated his guts
Got riCght up in his face said, your whole famn damily's nuts
Chicken lGegs got to flyin' And the whDoop started hittin' the fGan
Repeat Chorus
That Col' boom box got louder and louder
AcGtin' civilzed didn't seem to matter
EvCerybody got to showin' their hiney includin' Dme
Lord I'd neGver known Granny to take her a sip
But the woCrds were a slurrin' comin' off of her lips
And it daGwned on me white ligDhtnin' hit the family tGree
That Fol' park ranger jumped oCut of his car
Said, liGsten here folks, it's gone a little too far
TeFar it all down, pCack it all up
CDmall it quits while there's still a little love
Instrumental: C-G-C-Dm
Yeah I've nGever known Granny to take her a sip
But the woCrds were a slurrin' comin' off of her lips
And it daGwned on me white liDghtnin' hit the family tGree
Yeah it dawned on me white liDghtnin' hit the family tGree
