There's got to be some folks around   With memories just like mine   Who'd give the world to stop the clock   And turn back the hands of time      To an evenin' spent like so many spent   With mom and dad at home   When dad would get the old guitar down   And sing a family song      Sing a family song, sing a family song   When mom and me sang harmony, little sister, she hummed along   Sing a family song, oh, sing a family song   When dad would get the old guitar down and sing a family song      Now maybe at first your memories of home   Won't resemble mine at all   But there's one thing I know we all have in common   And that's the God given gift to recall      Maybe your dad didn't play no guitar   But I know that there was somethin' he did   That doesn't make your old heart just well up and sad   When you relive your life as a kid      Sing a family song, oh, sing a family song   When mom and me sang harmony, little sister hummed along   Sing a family song, oh, sing a family song   When dad would get the old guitar down and we'd sing a family song   When dad would get the old guitar down and sing a family song
