Cancer it got daddy, Billy's lost his mind
Jenny lost a baby while her boyfriend's doin' time
Cousin's sellin' somethin' down at the Church of Christ
He don't work on Sundays 'cause his mama raised him right
Doin' what we gotta do to make it
Anything to keep from goin' crazy
Dancin' in flames when the barn's on fire
Prayin' for rain while the coyotes weep
Somewhere between those all-nighters
And tryin' to get some sleep
We're a bed of flowers six feet deep
Laughin' through our misery
Just one big happy sad family
Sarah's cuttin' hair now since her DUI
Granny's on her last legs since her good boy said goodbye
Nephew found a needle, cost him his full ride
He's in and out of rehab but at least he's still alive
Dancin' in flames when the barn's on fire
Prayin' for rain while the coyotes weep
Somewhere between those all-nighters
And tryin' to get some sleep
We're a bed of flowers six feet deep
Laughin' through our misery
Just one big happy sad family
Doin' what we gotta do to make it
Anything to keep from goin' crazy
Dancin' in flames when the barn's on fire
Prayin' for rain while the coyotes weep
Somewhere between those all-nighters
And tryin' to get some sleep
We're a bed of flowers six feet deep
Laughin' through our misery
Just one big happy sad family
Just one big happy sad family
