Thicker Than Blood

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
She was born in Kansas City, raised in ArkansasFell in love with an “ex-Marine”She already had three babies; he had one of his ownThey came together for another and meOur family never shared the same last nameBut our family was a family, the same(and they say) blood is thicker than waterOh, but love is thicker than bloodWreck out on the highway, rain falling downLord, he must have fell asleep at the wheelThere’s a number of people just standing aroundLord, I can’t condemn the fear that they feelFor that river of red could be the death of meGod, give me strength and keep reminding meThat blood is thicker than waterOh, but love is thicker than bloodBridge:And if blood is thicker than waterThen what are we fighting forWe’re all sons and daughtersOf something that means so much moreI see it on my TV but I can’t understandLord, it’s one big contradiction to meHow in god’s name we love thy neighbor with fistsIn our handsAnd kill each other when we just don’t agreeWhy can’t we see the walls we can’t see throughAnd see what God’s been telling me and you(and that is) blood is thicker than waterOh, but love, love is thicker than blood
