Take a sleeper, take a red-eyed plane
Take a powder, take a freeze
Take a vow of silence
'Cause they 've got you on your knees
There are keepers, there are throw aways
He's got aces up his sleeve
There's a smell of violence
You can feel it on the breeze

He keeps it all in the family
All in the family

You can make a deal with a reachable wheel
Make a future with your hands
You can make your peace with Jesus
You can make it while you can
Be a big man
Be a daddy
Be a leader of the band
You can be an institution
Be the man with the plan

But keep it all in the family
All in the family

And it's no secret how the mighty
Hide and pull the strings
Join in so deep they're right you know
You'll never get to say a thing
They'll never let you say a thing
And it's all in the family

(Just like brother to brother
And it's all in the family)
