lyrics

[Verse 1]

Playing in the backyard of our
Mama’s home
Never had a care in the world
No we worried ‘bout nothin’ at all
We spent day and night and night and day
Dreaming ‘bout where we are
Dreaming dreams of better lives
That always seemed so very far
We lived
by hook and crook – no we never had a dime
But we laughed and jeered and danced and cheered
Always had a good time!

[Chorus 1]

She’s my sister
And I’m her brother
We both came from
(From) The same mother
My oldest friend
My Irish twin
And I can’t imagine
Life without her!

[Verse 2]

We were chums at summer camp
Boy Scouts and Girl Guides.
Letting it all hang out
We had nothing to hide.
Coming of age in the 70’s
When the world seemed so free
Nothing we couldn’t be.
We lived like tomorrow would never ever come.
Yah we shed no tears and had no fears
Just had so much fun!

[Chorus 2]

She’s my sister
And I’m her brother
We both came from
(From) The same mother
My oldest friend
My Irish twin
And I can’t imagine
Life without her!
Ah she’s my sister
And I LOVE her!
Ah we both came from
(From) The same mother
My oldest friend
My Irish twin
And I can’t imagine
Life without her!

[Bridge]

[Backup Vocals Lead]
She’s my sister
I’m her brother
She’s my sister
My sister my sister!
She’s my sister
I’m her brother!
She’s my sister
And I am her brother!

[Verse 3]

So we’re adults now
Together we’ll grow old.
With kids of our own
Living in our own homes.
We live day and night and night and day
Happy bout where we are.
Happy ‘bout the better lives that now are all ours.
We live with peace and love – yah we always make the time.
To laugh and jeer and dance and cheer
Always have a good time!

[Chorus 3/Outro]

She’s my sister
And I’m her brother
We both came from
(From) The same mother
My oldest friend
My Irish twin
And I can’t imagine
Life without her!
Ah she’s my sister
And I’m her brother (yah!)
Ah we both came from
(From) The same mother (yah!)
My oldest friend
My Irish twin
And I can’t I can’t I can’t I can’t
Can’t can’t can’t can’t can’t can’t
Live without her!
