The Lyrics

(not mentioned on the first song - but we have a very large family, and that's just the immediate family - makes for an interesting time trying to find a restaurant that will fit us...oh the woe!! )
Talked of my big, old household
We've been growing for forty all told
Besides all the wee ones,
Uncles, aunts, spouses, grandparents, too

Sitting with my flock getting gray
Watching the time roll away
Oooh Been waitin' for a table all day
Tastin' wine

That's after we grace a place
That has good food and the space
Finally able to sit down
"Carrasco's take your place"(Please save a space).

Birds of a feather flock together, so we do.
Comparing notes, that we do
Who will we chat about next? Maybe Lou?
Spill the beans.

Who did what when they were small?
Some kids have that total recall
Anecdotal it is and they tell us all.
Who stuck a bone in his foot? Say all.

We have such nosy kids, cannot hide nuthin' here.
Gone that nude picture, I fear.
Who nearly eats a whole steer with his beer?
He'll get sick.

Sitting with my flock getting gray
Watching the time roll away
Oooh Been waitin' for a table all day
Tastin' wine

(whistle)

Pat - This one is great. Really like part II. You have that smooth pace and internal rhyme workin' for ya here. More please. Great parody on taking a large family out to eat. Family so large that you needed two songs to do it all in. Must be a riot when you go out to eat and they call your table(s). Pat - party of 40 please assemble in the overflow parking garage... Who picks up the tab at these outings?
