Lyrics[]
Manny:
Every family has a way to celebrate
My favorite day is here now and I can't be late
We're having a fiesta, a party and a feast
Every family member from the West right to the East
A family reunion is a very special day
Dusty: Everyone's together
Felipe: Even those from far away
Tools: Reunion de familia
I can hardly wait
Manny: I love to be with family
It's such a special time for me
(spoken) Todos cantemos, everybody sing!
A family reunion is a very special day
Turner: Everyone's together
Squeeze: Even those from far away
All: Reunion de familia
I can hardly wait
Manny: I love to be with family
It's such a special time for me
Gonna be so much fun
All: And it's only just begun
Rusty: (spoken) Yeah!
Manny: It's great to spend a day with all your family
There's no better time, I think that you'll agree
I'm so full of tamales, it might be siesta time
Here's a way to celebrate with melody and rhyme
A family reunion is a very special day
Stretch: We're having so much fun here
Dusty: We wish that we could stay
Manny: My tools and I will always be a family
I'm a lucky man 'cause I have two for me
My family of my uncles, aunts and cousins too
But the tools are mi familia
They're my family through and through
A family reunion is a very special day
Rusty: We all get together
Pat: Even some from far away
All: Reunion de familia
Manny: Let's all celebrate
I love to be with family
I'm here for you, you're here for me
No matter how far we may roam
Together is where we belong! (x2)
Pat: (spoken) I always knew that.
Manny: (spoken in Spanish)
Pat: (spoken) Do I have a great family or what? (giggles)
