Sister

You saw me in the morning before any boy ever did
Said I was gorgeous hard to believe for a kid
Who was living in your shadow
Beauty queen idol
Super hero in red lipstick
You’ve always been taller easy to look up to
Sneaking me a dollar sneaking out your bedroom
Learned to do my makeup
How to put my hair up
Spent my whole life just watching you
Sister
All the secrets and sweaters that we kept
All the hearts and the cars somehow we wrecked
Didn’t know what we had when we had it
Sister
Oh, when did you make yourself lonely
Thinking you ain’t got nobody
But you got me
You got me
Sister, oh Sister, oh Sister
I thought I found a good one
Didn’t have a damn clue
He left me in the driveway
I ran in and called you
I couldn’t stop crying
So you brought the wine in
And said, «If you hate him, I hate him too»
Sister
All the secrets and sweaters that we kept
All the hearts and the cars somehow we wrecked
Didn’t know what we had when we had it
Sister
Oh, when did you make yourself lonely
Thinking you ain’t got nobody
But you got me
You got me
Sister, oh Sister, oh Sister
Blood is thicker than water
And we’ll keep each other from ever going under
Blood is thicker than water
And we’ll keep each other from ever going under
Sister
All the secrets and sweaters that we kept
All the hearts and the cars somehow we wrecked
Didn’t know what we had when we had it
Sister
Oh, when did you make yourself lonely
Thinking you ain’t got nobody
But you got me
You got me
Sister, oh Sister, oh Sister
