Family Ties Lyrics - Lucky Dube

[Foreign Content] 

Ever since they were born 

She was worried about their friends 

Even when they turned twenty five 

She was worried about the company they'd keep 

One day it was three in the morning 

The door bell rang, she got up in a sweat 

Blue lights flashing everywhere 

The boys in blue standing at the door 

The look on their faces scared her enough 

Before they told her what she was always afraid of 

Do you know where your son is tonight? 

Do you know where your daughter is tonight? 

I'm afraid they won't be coming home tonight 

Do you know where your son is tonight? 

Do you know where your daughter is tonight? 

I'm afraid they won't be coming home tonight

Ever since she was brought to this home 

She's been cursing every woman with a child 

She says they brought to this world the curse 

That have stained the good name of mankind 

One day it was three in the morning 

The guard came running to tell us she's gone 

Blue lights flashing everywhere, all over again 

The boys in blue, looking for her 

The look on their faces scared us enough 

When they told us to strengthen our family ties 

Do you know where your mother is tonight? 

Do you know where your father is tonight? 

I'm afraid they won't be coming home tonight 

Do you know where your son is tonight? 

Do you know where your daughter is tonight? 

I'm afraid they won't be coming home tonight

Do you know where your son is tonight? 

Do you know where your daughter is tonight?
