| First verse and you know it does not get any worse
|
| I got my friends and my pals singing this to nurse
|
| They wish our voices bring you peace on this earth
|
| 'Cause in the name of Jesus Christ we were blessed at birth
|
| With the gift of singing your sorrows away
|
| We won’t sing 'til we drive your sorrows away
|
| Please don’t cry, winds of change are blowing away
|
| And I know I don’t know who you are but I know
|
| We are family
|
| (I know it, I know it, I know it)
|
| We are family
|
| (I got my mother, my brother, my sister and lover)
|
| We are family
|
| (I know it, I know it, I know it)
|
| We are family
|
| (I said I know it)
|
| We are family
|
| We are family
|
| We are family
|
| (I know it, I know it, I know it)
|
| We are family
|
| You’re probably sitting there on your own
|
| You’re probably listening to this song
|
| Pumping all over your radio
|
| And suddenly you feel a lot of joy, joy
|
| You’re singing along,
|
| The Soil comes in, you don’t care, you just carry on
|
| You’re probably sitting there on your own
|
| You’re probably listening to this song
|
| Pumping all over your radio
|
| And suddenly you feel a lot of joy…
|
| Oh oh oh oh oh
|
| I got joy in my heart
|
| And you know it’s the kind of feeling
|
| Followed by a sense of healing, yeah
|
| I got joy in my heart, I got love in my heart and I got joy in my heart
|
| And you know it’s the kind of feeling
|
| Followed by a sense of healing, yeah
|
| I got joy in my heart, got love in my heart, I got joy in my heart
|
| UThixo wakudala wena wandizala
