Bring The Family Back

Billy Paul

(F. Smith/P. Terry)



Haven't you noticed

A breakdown in the family tie

Just not as strong as it once was

Every time I see it weaken, it makes me want to cry



Oh, what a shame [Oh, what a shame]

'Cause another home's falling apart

Oh, what a shame [Oh ,what a shame]

Another group of broken hearts



It's not a secret

We all know that it's slipping away

Don't let it go, no, don't you let it go

It is the only true foundation on which we can survive



Don't be afraid [Don't be afraid]

'Cause you got to take it for a stand

Don't be afraid [Don't be afraid]

You've got to try to understand



Bring the family back, bring it back together

Bring the family back

Bring the family back, bring it back together

Together



Bring the family back, bring it back together

Bring the family back



There's also the children

The future's quickly comin' their way

How it will be

Oh, tell me how do you think it will be



Will they all join hands together and live in harmony



Oh, what a shame [Oh, what a shame]

If we don't get together fast

Oh what a shame [Oh what a shame]

How much longer will the whole thing last



Bring the family back, bring 'em back together

Bring the family back

Bring the family back, bring the family back and together



Bring the family back and live in harmony

Bring the family back

Bring back family unity



Bring the family back, bring 'em back together

Bring the family back

Bring the family back together, bring 'em family back

Bring 'em back together



Bring the family back and live in harmony

Bring the family back

Bring the family back, where's the unity

Bring the family back



Bring the old folks, the young folks, and all folks together

Just bring the people back

Bring the family back [Bring the family back, bring it back together]

[Bring the family back]



Bring the family back

Bring the family back

Bring the family back

Bring it all the time together



Bring the family back together [Bring the family back, bring it back

together]

[Bring the family back]

[Bring the family back, bring it back together]

[Bring the family back]



[Bring the family back]
