Mennonite Song Lyrics

ALL HOOKED UP

Sing to the tune of Elvis Presley's song 'All Shook Up'

Well Hello stranger what's your last name
Have you ever heard of the Mennonite game
We try to connect before it's time up
We just met, but we're all hooked up

So your from Blumenort but you work in Steinbach
Do you know a John Peters with a Chevy Truck
Believe it or not, he's my brother in law
We just met, but we're all hooked up

Well we can do better just give it a chance
I'll need a list of your uncles and aunts
Well what do you know, your auntie Sue
She's my momma's second cousin once removed

Now, a blood connection, that's a what we got
You're my third cousin once removed but in-law
I'm proud today, we've done a good job
We just met, but we're all hooked up

Now go on and play this game some more
Make connections, that's what they invented it for
There's only one flaw with this hobby of mine
The Mennonite game is a bad pick-up line

Now, a blood connection, that's a what we got
You're my third cousin once removed but in-law
I'm proud today, we've done a good job
We just met, but we're all hooked up
