Mavis Staples - Blood Is Thicker Than Time lyrics
I've been 2 the mountain top
 I've been 2 the valley low
 The one thing that never stopped
 Was the love that my family showed
 When my mama she passed away
 My papa he gave us hope
 He said there won't ever come a day
 When your family won't help U cope
 As sure as Moses' staff parted the water
 As sure as Cain had 2 pay 4 his crime
 As sure as no one wants 2 be broken hearted
 That's how sure I am that blood is thicker than time
Well
 We went 2 church on Sunday mornin' (Oh yeah)
 All dressed up lookin' mighty fine
 The spirit came without a warning
 Intoxicated us all like wine
 Don't it make U stop and wonder
 Why we kill our own kind every day?Mavis Staples - Blood Is Thicker Than Time - http://motolyrics.com/mavis-staples/blood-is-thicker-than-time-lyrics.html
 Why can't we get along with each other
 When we damn well know it's the only way?
 As sure as Moses' staff parted the water
 As sure as Cain had 2 pay 4 his crime
 As sure as no one wants 2 be broken hearted
 That's how sure I am that blood is thicker than time
 (That's how sure I am, oh yeah, blood is thicker than
 Time)
 Don't it make U stop and wonder
 Why we kill our own kind every day?
 Why can't we get along with each other
 When we damn well know it's the only way?
 As sure as Moses' staff parted the water
 As sure as Cain had 2 pay 4 his crime (Uh-huh)
 As sure as no one wants 2 be broken hearted
 That's how sure I am that blood is thicker than time
That's how sure I am blood is thicker than time
