[Verse 1] Every year we roll up slow Cooler packed and tables low Auntie brings the lemon pie Cousins race before we try Blankets out on the green grass Somehow time is moving fast Shoes off, shirts out, sleeves rolled up Somebody already filled my cup [Pre-Chorus] And I hear that laugh again Same old game, new little grin We line up and count to ten Then the fun starts all over again [Chorus] Picnic day, picnic day Pass the fruit and run away Picnic day, picnic day That is how we play Picnic day, picnic day Keep it moving, keep it sweet (Mmm) favorite every year (Mmm) family on the blanket seat [Verse 2] Uncle sets the rope for tug Little hands pull with all their love Marbles shine in a paper cup Grandpa cheers when we lift one up Tag and hide behind the trees Dust and giggles, sticky knees Cards on the table, dice in hand We all know the second plan [Pre-Chorus] And I hear that laugh again Same old game, new little grin We line up and count to ten Then the fun starts all over again [Chorus] Picnic day, picnic day Pass the fruit and run away Picnic day, picnic day That is how we play Picnic day, picnic day Keep it moving, keep it sweet (Mmm) favorite every year (Mmm) family on the blanket seat [Bridge] One more slice, one more song Everybody sings along When the sun goes soft and low Nobody wants to go [Final Chorus] Picnic day, picnic day Pass the fruit and run away Picnic day, picnic day That is how we play Picnic day, picnic day Best kind of happy, honest, free (Mmm) favorite every year (Mmm) all of us together, family
