| Uncle Phil said to me, that woman will be the death of me | |
| but I don't think there's anything I can do | |
| She's got ways I don't understand Putting words into my mouth | |
| Things I just can't get used to | |
| But then she dropped the cornbread in the kitchen | |
| Uncle Phil smiled as if she'd just done the greatest thing | |
| I'm not sure if I understood then | |
| But I guarantee I understand now | |
| My cousin screwed up without a doubt | |
| All of a sudden, he wasn't hanging out | |
| and "That girl", he said, "She is the cats…" | |
| then he disappeared from sight without a trace | |
| So they had a bunch of babies and they got a good jobs | |
| working hard to provide the best they can | |
| I'm not sure if I understood then | |
| But I guarantee I understand now | |
| I'm beginning to appreciate the value of generations changing hands | |
| Family ties and lips and eyes Pass it down | |
| Now the weatherman today said | |
| "Warm and cloudy, cold front coming in around sundown" | |
| And I'm walking through your house, full of your beautiful relations | |
| and I'm thinking that I'd like to stick around | |
| And there are things I have said with one hand on the Bible | |
| that are only now starting to make sense | |
| I'm not sure if I understood then | |
| But I guarantee I understand now | |
