Intro

Welcome to the family

Hope you have a real good life

With my little sister

Yeah, she'll make a real good wife

Hope you have lots of babies

Hope you get a real good job

Hope you don't mind company

 'Cause we'll be here a lot

 And brother here's some brotherly advice

 If you know what's good for you you'll treat her right

Chorus

 'Cause Grandpa's the local sheriff

 Yeah he's the judge and the jury too

 Uncle Bill's the undertaker, son

He'll dig a hole for you

 Cousin Jesse, he's just crazy

 He'll fight you just for fun

 An' Mama's got a real bad temper

 An' Daddy's got a shotgun

Welcome to the family

 An' this side of the tracks

 An' if you ever leave her

You ain't coming back

 My nephew is a hunter

 An' he's gonna hunt you down

 Just like he did the last one

 An' he still ain't been found

I like you just fine, don't get me wrong

Boy take care of her,...if you don't
