Cause I've got friends, I've got family here
They say these kids are diseased
But we've got love to share
Cause God knows where we've been
But not where we're going
And when the water is too deep to swim
We still swim

Cause I've got friends, I've got family here
I will sleep down on the beaches
And you will swim from shore to open shore

Cause I've got friends, I've got family here
Cut me down to firewood and carve our names
Cause I've got friends, I've got family here
