Lyrics

The lines marked with an asterisk (*) are only present on the original version of We Are Family.

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

* We are family
  I got all my sisters with me
  We are family
  Get up everybody and sing

Everyone can see we're together
As we walk on by
(FLY!) and we fly 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

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

 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
