Song Spotlight: Sister Sledge's "We Are Family"
Join us in singing the Sledge sisters' infectious paean to family on Tuesday, June 9.
The four Sledge sisters had a massive disco hit with “We Are Family” in 1979. And what a lovely celebration of family it is! A perfect song to get our blood pumping at the 16th Social-Justice Sing-Along: Mothers, Fathers, and Others Edition.

Lyrics
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 1]
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!} 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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
Living life is fun and we’ve just begun to get our share
of this world’s delights
(High) high hopes we have for the future and our goal’s in sight
(We!) No, we don’t get depressed, here’s what we call
our golden rule
Have faith in you and the things you do, you won’t go wrong, oh no
this is our family jewel
[Chorus]
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
