Family Reserve - Lyle Lovett
CWhen I saw the ambulance Fscreaming down Main Street
CI didn't give it a Gthought
But Cit was my Uncle Eugene
He Fdied on October the C2nd, G198C1
CAnd my Uncle Wilbur
FThey all called him Skinner
CAnd they said for his younger Gways
He'd get Cdrunk in the morning
And show me the Frolls of fifties and hundreds
He Ckept in the glove box of his Gold grey CImpala
Chorus: And we'rC#mine all gonnGa be here forCever
So Mama don't you make such a stir G
Put doCwn that camera
And comFe on and join up
The last oCf the familyG reservCe
CNow my second cousin Fhis name was Calloway
He Cdied when he'd barely turned Gtwo
And it was pCeanut butter and Fjelly what did it
The Chelp she didn't Gknow what to Cdo
She just stood there and she wGatched him turn Cblue
Chorus
CAnd my friend Brian Temple hFe thought he could make it
So Cfrom the third story heG jumped
And Che missed the swimming pool
But Fonly by inches
And Ceveryone Gsaid he was Cdrunk
Chorus
CAnd there was great Uncle Julius and there was FAunt Annie Miller
And CMary and Grandaddy GPaul
And there was CHannah and Ella and FAlvin and Attic
And Che owned his Gown funeral Chome
CAnd there are more I remember andF more I could mention
Than Cwords I could write in this Gsong
But I Cfeel them watching and FI see them laughing
And CI, I hear them Gsinging aClong
Chorus
There you go...Keep an eye out, more Lovett tunes to come
