Lyrics

[Chorus] Nothing like a phat cup filling up sweet tea and ice Cooling on the porch on a summers night makes memories nice [Verse 1] God bless the child Whose got his own and he walks his own mile Looking back on my childhood Couldn't support myself but my mother could Dad was the leader of my christian home Instilled in us that we were never alone Saying that the spirit of the family stays together forever And there's nothing that could sever The ties that are bound by the lows and the highs The laughs and the cries the experience of life You got to rake the leaves around the family tree Cause if we stray to far we might lose identity..so check me [Chorus] Nothing like a phat cup filling up sweet tea and ice Cooling on the porch on a summers night makes memories nice [Verse 2] I remember the days gone by Family gatherings my kin folk tribe Usually happened on the Fourth of July Cousin Tob and me pumpking pie swattin' fire flies Thats the way the story goes that the way it goes Ten years later and nobody knows What happened to the picnics but the trick is That we remember the family stays together forever And it doesn't take someone clever To realize that a persons spirits tied to his family Cause the family tree is in me And in me is the memory of what use to be So kick a glass of ice and some sweet tea And let the memories be [Chorus] Nothing like a phat cup filling up sweet tea and ice Cooling on the porch on a summers night makes memories nice [Bridge] Hey granny pass me some of that sweet tea Honey their ain't no more sweet tea There ain't no more There ain't no more Oh lord what ya doing this for All I want is some sweet tea and my family (their ain't no more) [Verse 3] Sweet like chocolate sometimes dark as it Eventhough its liquid its still yet addictive Thinking back in the days when I was raised Single parent family still we kept it tight By the grace of God eventhough times was hard Still had a joy in life phat cups of tea and ice Phat cups of tea and ice sure make the memories nice Of flipping with my family dippin with my cousing "T" I remember get togethers 100 degree swimming weather Mouth dry and drooling looking for the cooler Cooler full of sweet tea always I could find Check the one with the phat longest of the lines Praise to the father and the son up above To phat cups of sweet tea I'm giving much love [Chorus] Nothing like a phat cup filling up sweet tea and ice Cooling on the porch on a summers night makes memories nice
