When my family gets together,
There's more than two or three.
There's my sister, my father, my mother, my grandma, my grandpa, my dog,
and me.
Seven places set for dinner,
And seven cups for tea.
For my sister, my father, my mother, my grandma, my grandpa, my dog,
and me.
Now there's me, that's one,
My sister makes two,
And dad and mom are three and four.
Grandma is five, and Grandpa makes six,
And Roscoe my dog makes seven and there aren't anymore - STILL!
It's so nice to be together, my whole big family,
My sister, my father, my mother, my grandma, my grandpa, my dog, and me.
voiceover: Her sister is real nice except she runs an awful lot
[Hey Marylou, wanna race?]
And her mom and dad are cool but they argue a lot
[No honey, you're right and I'm wrong]
[No, sweetie, you're right and I'm wrong]
And her grandparents are real nice, maybe she says something about
them spoiling her
[Here Marylou, Grandma brought you a bag of jelly beans]
[Here Marylou, Grandpa brought you two bags of jelly beans]
And Roscoe, her dog, well they just love each other a whole lot!
STILL!
It's so nice to be together, my whole big family:
My sister, my father, my mother, my grandma, my grandpa, my dog, and me.
My sister, one,
My father, two,
My mother, three,
My grandma, four,
My grandpa, five,
My doggie, six...
And seven is ME!
Yeah!
