Family Lyrics

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
