Family Mama's cryin' again, her baby's nowhere to be found The world has gone and taken her away Daddy went and ran off with some white trash half his age Left me at home to pay for his mistakes And my sister held my hand when that bad boy broke my heart Ain't no miles, ain't no man could ever tear us apart
Now here I stand, on roots so deep We laugh, we cry, we hurt and we bleed We're best of friends but worst enemies We're all to blame and we're all the same Make no apologies This is my family Whoa, this is my family
I can't forget the night Uncle Willie passed away. We were close to recognising ... We ran away and we ran around ... Ain't it funny how some things never change
Now here I stand, on roots so deep We laugh, we cry, we hurt and we bleed
We're best of friends but worst enemies We're all to blame and we're all the same Make no apologies This is my family This is my family
Don't you try to change my name You'll regret that ... Yeah just let me do my thing Where I start, where I end
Now here I stand, on roots so deep We laugh, we cry, we hurt and we bleed We're best of friends but worst enemies We're all to blame and we're all the same Make no apologies This is my family This is my family Whoa, this is my family
