geneology - joanie leeds & joya leeds lyrics

[verse 1]
we didn’t know anything about it
where we came from, but no, she never doubted it
like a detective, a hound with a computer
picking up clues like a world class sleuth
after tem years searching back in ’95
my bubby never knew her family was alive
she put a letter online her father gave her
translated from yiddish back in lithuania
she posted all the clues from the letter: namе, dates, places
but wait, it gets bеtter
to her surprise, she got a reply
she found three survivors from her father’s side, yeah

[chorus]
genealogy—find your family
leaves and branches, roots that made me
genealogy—find your family
leaves and branches, roots that made me
genealogy—find your family
leaves and branches, roots that made me
genealogy—find your family
leaves and branches, roots that made me

[verse 2]
can you imagine solving this puzzle?
a lifetime wondering, finding three first cousins?
the proof was in the photo
they all had the same of their shared grandfather with the same name
saved by nuns and a neighbor in france
their family all gone, but those kids had a chance
to live and they grew and finally united
had families of their own and no longer divided
scattered seeds finally growing roots
thanks to bubby and her endless pursuits
but she didn’t stop there, showin’ others what to do
the library of congress, her book is on view
[chorus]
genealogy—find your family
leaves and branches, roots that made me
genealogy—find your family
leaves and branches, roots that made me
genealogy—find your family
leaves and branches, roots that made me
genealogy—find your family
leaves and branches, roots that made me

[bridge]
look it up
just set your mind to it
look it up
just set your mind to it
look it up
just set your mind to it
look it up
set your mind to it

[chorus]
genealogy—find your family
leaves and branches, roots that made me (set your mind to it)
genealogy—find your family
leaves and branches, roots that made me (set your mind to it)
genealogy—find your family
leaves and branches, roots that made me (set your mind to it)
genealogy—find your family
leaves and branches, roots that made me (set your mind to it)
genealogy—find your family
leaves and branches, roots that made me
genealogy—find your family
leaves and branches, roots that made me
