Our big daddy is always the leader 
He is the family's captain and chief, the one 
I choked when my skin's caught up in my throat
'Cause there was our pop in the oak

Our big mama, she really had her guts go 
When daddy put the barbeque on maximum 
And caught her favorite pet, a skunk whose name's Garth 
Short after our pop was up far

Thought I ever gonna see my old pop in an oak 
Ever gonna see his old pipe in a smoke 

Old pop in an oak, pop in an oak 
Once you could hear the sucker linger show 
Thought I ever gonna see my old pop in an oak 
Ever gonna see his old pipe in a smoke
