Lyrics
Sunday afternoon and the table is set Cousins are coming, we're not done yet Gravy in the boat and the music is loud Uncle's dancing with the whole crowd Pass the plate around, pass it round Sunday's got a sweet, sweet sound Hey! Pass the plate around, pass it round Sunday's got a sweet, sweet sound Grandma's laughing at the head of the room Kids under the table, a-dancing with the broom Horns in the hallway, spoons on the cup Nobody leaves till we all give up Pass the plate around, pass it round Sunday's got a sweet, sweet sound Hey! Pass the plate around, pass it round Sunday's got a sweet, sweet sound Stomp your feet, one two Dinner's done and the dance is due Stomp your feet, one two Sunday family, me and you Pass the plate around, pass it round Sunday's got a sweet, sweet sound Hey! Pass the plate around, pass it round Sunday's got a sweet, sweet sound Pass the plate Hey! Round and round
