I can't get over what I saw
I can't change the lore of every chest
I'm going down

My Uncle did it
My Daddy did it
I'm beginning to think that it runs in the family
Oh no
Runs, runs in the family

One by one we left home
We went so far out there
Everybody got scared

My Uncle did it
My Daddy did it
I'm beginning to think that it runs in the family
Oh no
Runs, runs in the family

I could have gone to school
And all the girls were prettier enough to play the fool
Something about the teacher's wouldn't leave thе bunch of us alone

I remembеr that night
It was the one I did fight with you
I'm holding the pear, just like my mamma did
Just like her mamma did
Now there's gonna be a new kid in the family
Oh no
Kid, it's gonna run in the family
Oh yeah
Kid, you're gonna run in the family
