Let's Make A Family

(Mark Erelli)

I hear a tick
I hear a tock
Must be your biological clock
You're ready
Oh, you're ready

You got the itch
I wanna scratch
I can't resist that's a natural fact
I'm ready
I think I'm ready
We've had plenty of practice, so how hard can it be?
Baby, let's make a family

Some say we're in need
Of a reality check
But is there ever a good time so what the heck
If you're ready
Oh you're ready

Though the money we got
Ain't going far
You can't make a lot with an acoustic guitar
But I'm ready
I hope I'm ready
'Cause even fools are born with all the tools they need
Oh baby, let's make a family

I felt a kick
I can't wait
I know that's easy for me to say
You're ready
Look at you, you're ready

Eight months down
One to go
We're gonna add another ring to this circus show
And I'm ready
I better be ready
So honey cross your fingers and hope it don't look like me
Oh baby, let's make a family

Baby, you know I've been thinking
We can start this one out on the steel guitar and the next on the mandolin
All it would take is a couple sets of twins
And before too long I'd have me a band for free
