We Are Family Lyrics

[Chorus]
We are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up, everybody, and sing
We are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up, everybody, and sing

[Verse 1]
Everyone can see we're together
As we walk on by
(And) And we flock just like birds of a feather
I won't tell no lie
(All) All of the people around us, they say
"Can they be that close?"
Just let me state for the record
We're giving love in a family dose

[Chorus]
We are family (Hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah)
I got all my sisters with me (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
We are family
Get up, everybody, and sing (Sing it to me)
We are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up, everybody, and sing

[Verse 2]
Living life is fun and we've just begun
To get our share of this world's delights
(High) High hopes we have for the future
And our goal's in sight
(We) No, we don't get depressed
Here's what we call our golden rule
Have faith in you and the things you do
You won't go wrong, oh-no, this is our family jewel

[Chorus]
We are family (Hey, hey, sing it to me)
I got all my sisters with me (Yeah, yeah, sing it with me)
