Merry Christmas From The Family Lyrics
At our Christmas party
We were drinkin' champagne punch
And homemade eggnog
Little sister brought her new boyfriend
He was a Mexican
We didn't know what to think of him
Til he sang Feliz Navidad
Feliz Navidad
The three from his first wife Lynn
And the two identical twins
>From his second wife MaryNell
Of course he brought his new wife Kaye
Who talks all about AA
Chain smokin' while the stero plays
Noel, Noel, The first Noel
Mix Margaritas when the eggnog's gone
Send somebody to the Quik-Pak store
We need some ice and an extention cord
A can of bean dip and some Diet Rite
A box of tampons and some Marlboro Lights
Hallelujah everybody say cheese
Merry Christmas from the family
I can't remember how I'm kin to them
But when they tried to plug their motorhome in
They blew our christmas lights
Cousin David knew just what went wrong
So we all waited on our front lawn
He threw the breaker and the lights came on
And we sang Silent Night
Oh Silent Night
Make Bloody Marys cause we all want one
Send somebody to the Stop 'n Go
We need some celery and a can of fake snow
A bag of lemons and some Dite Sprite
A box of tampons and some Salem Lights
Hallelujah everybody say cheese
Merry Christmas from the family
This is my Favorite REK song. It makes me laugh everytime I hear it. Check him out online at www.robertearlkeen.com
I don't have relatives this bad, but this can remind me of our family Christmas.
If you read his book "Marry Christmass from the Family" it makes it that much better to listen to
Keen’s Christmas get together makes me feel a little better about my own family. Thanks REK.
So to tell you the truth, I've got some red necks in my family and this totally reminds me of them.
Little sister brought her new boyfriend He was a Mexican We didn't know what to think of him Til he sang Feliz Navidad Feliz Navidad
=P
In the video, they have the Mexican guy in front of the fridge with some magnet letters behind him that say M-E-X-I-C-A-N. It looks like a mug shot.
Southern states have a reputation for being racist. To me the beauty of this verse is what the words and video imply. "A Mexican? She's going out with a MEXICAN???" And then they hear him sing.... and he is immediately and fully accepted into the family. Fantastic storytelling.

I've been to Harlingen!
A friend wondered why they needed so many tampons.
Another friend said "For all the bloody noses from the fist fights in the back yard..."
