Sister, dry your tears

'Cos I know there's something to hold on to

The pain, you're living with

Sure must be a way to live without

And I've known you long enough to see

Something is wrong

That you gotta get rid off

If you wanna live long

And your friends, they tell me 'bout your sorrow

But you don't tell me nothing of it all

And what I feel, it's that it's not your fault

So I ain't gonna judge you or treat you wrong

So now you gotta talk to me about this mess

You're going through

Is that your job your kids your man that's troubling ?

As a brother I'm asking you

She said, the eyes full of tears, you know, who causes my fears

But I love him, and I need him, but he's just too hard on me

And I'm stained by devil hands, gotta leave before the end

Sister, how strong you've been

To take your things and take your kids away

And soon enough, I'm gonna pay a visit

Cos I long to see them, now you feel better

I long to see them, more than ever

Because I'm missing my family, and sister
