Aaron Tveit - (Our) Family Tree lyrics

[MITCH MILLER (spoken)] NBC presents: Sing Along With Mitch! Starring me, Mitch Miller And the sing-along gang! This one's for the whole family [ROGER (spoken)] Take it, mother [CAROL] I feel a mighty quake The south begins to shake Under our family tree Th leaves begin to blow Gone with the wind they go All through our family tree Up top magnolias bloom They spread their sweet perfume For this ancestral jubilee! Now every bough must pull its weight It's time to prune and propagate So welcome to our family tree [ROGER] I hear the dogwood's bark A seed's begun to spark Inside our family tree A twig begins to poke From out that mighty oak To join the jamboree And like a slide trombone He glides out fly grown A Dixieland R.S.V.P And no one minds an extra limb [CAROL] Especially when it looks like him! [ROGER & CAROL] So welcome to our family tree [BRENDA & LADIES] I feel a burst of spring My trunk begins to swing Just like our family tree The cousins come to call They'll stay until next fall ‘Case there's lots of fixings and they're free [MEN] Have some of that gumbo for me [BRENDA & LADIES] The kin folk gather 'round They've covered lots of ground There's not a soul left in Tennessee [BRENDA] They've all arrived to germinate To fertilize and [BRENDA & LADIES] Cultivate And populate our family tree [MITCH (spoken)] Ready, Frank? [FRANK, JR. (spoken)] Ready Mitch! [FRANK, JR.] I'll give a rebel yell To every Southern Belle Under our family tree I'll swing the second line When our two clans combine For some big [FRANK JR. & ALL] Easy harmony [FRANK, JR.] Trumpets begin to shout To welcome your new sprout You've charmed this Yankee refugee You're all so lush and overgrown But I know I'll never be alone I'm glad to climb your family tree [FRANK JR. & THE STRONGS] Your love has raised the bar I'm swingin' on a star [FRANK, JR.] For that who needs a law degree? [LADIES] The trees that bear the ripest fruits [MEN] Are trees that have the deepest roots, so… [ALL] Welcome to our family Welcome to our family [FRANK JR.] I'm... [ALL] Welcome to the family tree! [FRANK, JR.] Look out old Frankie is home! [ALL] Yeah!
