Album: The Family (2016)

The Family

Sister Susan, by the time she was four
She could climb up just about any tree
From the highway you could see our house
She would look out as the cars drove past

And the family was always glad you came
Said the family was always glad you came

We played football on the gravel drive
I would take it long overtime
West Virginia, the stakes were high
The ball would fly through the sky, so bright

And the family was always glad you came
Said the family was always glad you came

We may never pass this way again
But I'll never let you down, no
I'll always let you in
I'll never let you down, no
I'll always let you in

And the family was always glad you came

Joseph Leon was taken first
Mama, you know she lost her mind
It was mercy that held them close
And it was mercy that left us behind

And the family was always glad you came
Said the family was always glad you came

It was mercy, it was mercy
It was mercy, it was mercy
It was mercy, it was mercy
