My family reunion is going on today

My relatives have all flow in

From places far away

As we sit here eatin' chicken

It hits me like a truck

I don't like half the folks I love

My and my former best friend

Had a big falling out

I caught him with my wife

So I punched him in the mouth

We just can't hang out anymore

But I still wish them luck

I don't like half the folks I love

God knows they're all dear to me

But if the truth be told

I like it when they come

But I love it when they go

I'm sure they've got good qualities

But the bad ones cover them up

I don't like half the folks I love

My alcoholic buddies are fun to hang around

When we drink together peace and joy are bound

But sometimes they bring me one more shot

When they know I've had enough

I don't like half the folks I love

God knows they're all dear to me

But if the truth be told

I like it when they come

But I love it when they go

I'm sure they've got good qualities

But the bad ones cover them up

I don't like half the folks I love

In this world we live in

This I guarantee

We all need more tolerance

To get along peacefully

But I'm not as nice as Jesus

And I really am fed up

I don't like half the folks I love

God knows they're all dear to me

But if the truth be told

I like it when they come

But I love it when they go

I'm sure they've got good qualities

But the bad ones cover them up

I don't like half the folks I love

I don't like half the folks I love
