My brothers and my sisters mean all the world to me
They are my rock, they are my life, they are my cup of tea
I would not be without them, in my life, it’s true
I’ll stand by them forever, no matter what they do
They have made me tear my hair out and given me the blues
They have borrowed my best dresses and even wore my shoes
I would not be without them in my life it’s true
I’ll stand by them forever, no matter what they do
My brothers are so dear to me and fill my life with pride
The jokes the laughs and funny times, tears we tried to hide
I would not be without them in my life it’s true
I’ll stand by them forever, no matter what they do
The six of us together all sharing hopes and dreams
And all our laughter mixed with happy teardrop streams
I would not be without them in my life it’s true
I’ll stand by them forever no matter what they do
We’ve overcome the saddest times our love has kept us whole
The bond we share is from the heart and deep within our soul
I would not be without them in my life it’s true
I’ll stand by them forever no matter what they do
