Family Reunion Lyrics

by: Chick Rains and Harlan Howard

It won't make the papers

Like some reunions do

There won't be many people

Just me and him and you

I made a childhood promise

You laughed and dried your tears

I swore that I'd bring Daddy home

And tomorrow he'll be here

I tracked him down in Denver

Where he'd lived all alone

He was just another drifter

With a number on his stone

In his things I found a picture

Where his hands had worn it thin

A smiling bride was by his side

Now you'll be that way again

CHORUS

We'll have that family reunion

The one you dreamed of

Until the day you died

This time Mama he's gonna stay

Forever by your side

I never really knew him

I was no more than a kid

He must have been worth something

If someone loved him like you did

It was hard without a man there

You did his part too

I watched your dreams fade

Through the years

But Mama--This one

Is coming true

REPEAT CHORUS
