Lyrics
Sunday afternoon, the table is set Aunties are laughing, no worries yet Chicken in the oven, rice on the stove Everybody's here and the room feels gold Pass the plate Don't be late Come and take your place Sunday, Sunday, sing along Full tummy and a happy song Sunday, Sunday, slow and sweet Family rhythm, tap your feet Oh-oh, pass it round Oh-oh, hear that sound Sunday, Sunday, sing along Full tummy and a happy song Cousins in the corner playing cards Uncle tells the story, he laughs too hard Grandma hums a tune from long ago Sun on the window, warm and slow Pass the plate Don't be late Come and take your place Sunday, Sunday, sing along Full tummy and a happy song Sunday, Sunday, slow and sweet Family rhythm, tap your feet Oh-oh, pass it round Oh-oh, hear that sound Sunday, Sunday, sing along Full tummy and a happy song Wash the dishes, sway and spin Let the afternoon sink in Nobody's counting, nobody's rushed Love is the seasoning, love is enough Sunday, Sunday, sing along Full tummy and a happy song Sunday, Sunday, slow and sweet Family rhythm, tap your feet Oh-oh, pass it round Oh-oh, hear that sound Sunday, Sunday, sing along Full tummy and a happy song Sunday, Sunday Sing along
