Capo 2
Intro: (x4)
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
(x2)
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
Chorus:
Grandpa's the local sheriff
Yeah he's the judge and the jury too

He'll fight you just for fun
An'Mama's got a real bad temper
An'Daddy's got a shotgun
