Thompson Richard Linda Sunnyvista Sisters Remember the time when we two kin were reared There was never a morsel but that it was shared If the one babe was stung, 'twas the other would cry There scarce was a crossed word and never a lie Our people were drab and defeated like slaves The light of their fathers went into the ?paves? I took to the highway to find some relief I never meant parting to put you to grief (Chorus) Sisters, we were sisters Till love came between us and pulled us apart We were sisters, we were sisters Don't call me your sister and put a knife through my heart Now you smile when you greet me, you put on a show But it's slander you're talking as soon as you go If your eye and my eye don't meet any more Hold fast to your tongue when I've walked out the door (Chorus) You say that I'm different, don't hold me to blame It's not to my grandeur, it's not to your shame It's nothing of mine that I lay at your door So take it or leave it, it's to heal, not to sore (Chorus) (Chorus) |
