Daddy´s on the run from the IRS
He says "it runs in the family, think nothing less"
Says they´re gonna have to dig him up when he´s dead

I ain´t givin´ them bastards a penny back

It´s Thanksgiving, what are we thankful for?
They put cuffs on your uncle, and they lock the door
Your cousin´s took a trip to the hospital
She didn´t know she was on fentanyl
No, she didn´t know she was on fentanyl

I never needed a reason to let you down
You´re running in my blood
We got a reputation in this town
You´re running in my blood
I´ll be there beside you when you hit the ground
You´re running in my blood
I never needed a reason to let you down
You´re running in my blood

Papa´s walking ´round with the pain in his chest
He says "it runs in the family, think nothing less"
Smilin´ at me through a cigarette
He says you ain´t in pain if you don´t look like it

Mama it´s Christmas now, don´t you cry
You´re the only reason we´re here tonight
Yeah, you´re the only reason we´re here tonight

I never needed a reason to let you down
You´re running in my blood
We got a reputation in this town
You´re running in my blood
I´ll be there beside you when you hit the ground
You´re running in my blood
I never needed a reason to let you down

You´re running in my blood

Yeah, I´m nothing without you
Yeah, you´re nothing without me

I never needed a reason to let you down
You´re running in my blood
We got a reputation in this town
You´re running in my blood
I´ll be there beside you when you hit the ground
You´re running in my blood
I never needed a reason to let you down
You´re running in my blood

Yeah, I´m nothing without you
Yeah, you´re nothing without me
