Fine china stacked by the kitchen sink
Aunt tammy's in there claimin' on a diamond ring
Uncle Bobby's loading up the T.V. set
The only thing they grievin' qver is what they ain't gonna get
She's only been in the ground a day or two
I'm glad mama ain't around to watch this family feud

Great Grand-daddy's shotgun started it all
She wasn't even cold 'fore they ripped it off the wall
Wanda's fightin' Angie over antique quilts
Nobody even waited for the reading of the will
If Daddy was here he'd beat us black and blue
And I'm glad mama ain't around to watch this family feud

I'm watchin it all go down in shame
I wish the whole house would go up in flames
Who gives a damn about a cedar chest
When we just laid her soul to rest
She's only been in the ground a day or two
I'm glad mama ain't around to watch this family feud

She's probably rollin' over in her grave
'Cause the good lord giveth and the family taketh away
