[Intro: John Legend, Joss Stone]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Mm, mm, oh, yeah, ooh
Ooh, yeah, no-oh, ooh
Hey
Come on
[Chorus: Miss Jordan, Joss Stone]
It's a family affair (Ooh, ooh)
It's a family affair (Oh, yeah, yeah)
It's a family affair
It's a family affair
[Verse 1: Joss Stone, John Legend]
One child grows up to be
Somebody that just loves to learn, yeah
Another child grows up to be
Somebody we'd just love to burn
[Verse 2: Joss Stone, Van Hunt, John Legend, Joss Stone & John Legend]
Mother loves (The both of them) the both of them
You see, it's in the blood, you see, it's in the blood
Both kids are good to mom
Blood's thicker than the mud
[Chorus: Joss Stone, Miss Jordan, John Legend]
(It's a family affair)
It's a family affair (It's a family affair) (It's my family affair)
It's a family affair
[Post-Chorus: John Legend, Van Hunt]
(No, no)
(Hey, ooh)
(Whoa, no, yeah)
[Verse 3: Van Hunt, Joss Stone, Miss Jordan]
I've been newlywed, just a year ago (Year ago)
But they're still checking each other out
And nobody wants to blow (Nobody)
Nobody wants to be left out (Uh-huh)
[Verse 4: Van Hunt, Van Hunt & Joss Stone, Joss Stone, John Legend]
Can't leave 'cause your heart is there
Sure, you can't stay 'cause you been somewhere else
You can't cry 'cause you'll look broke down
But you're cryin' anyway (But you're cryin' anyway)
'Cause you're all broke down ('Cause you're all broke down)
[Chorus: Miss Jordan, John Legend, Van Hunt]
It's a family affair (It's a family affair)
It's a family affair (Oh, yeah) (It's a family affair)
It's a family affair (Family affair)
It's a family affair (Hey) (Hey, yeah)
[Post-Chorus: Van Hunt]
It's your turn
Come on now
[Bridge: Van Hunt, John Legend & Van Hunt, John Legend]
(Sh-, sh-)
[?]
Hey
[Chorus: Miss Jordan, John Legend, Joss Stone, Van Hunt]
It's a family affair (Said, it's all of us, yeah)
It's a family affair (It's my family, yeah)
It's a family affair (It's my family affair)
It's a family affair (Hey, oh)
[Outro: John Legend, Miss Jordan, Joss Stone & Miss Jordan]
([?])
All over the world, yeah
([?])
See, it's in the blood
It's a family affair
Yeah, hey, yeah, yeah
It's a family affair
Do you know what I'm talking about?
It's a family affair
You see, it's in the blood
It's my family affair
It's a family affair
It's a family affair
Do you know what I'm talking about?
It's a family affair
