You and Your Folks Me and My Folks by Funkadelic Lyrics
[Intro: Billy Bass Nelson]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Let me hear you say
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Let me hear you say
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
If you and your folks love me and my folks
Like me and my folks love you and your folks
If there ever was folks
That ever ever was poor, yeah
If you and your thing dig me and my thing
Like me and my thing dig you and your thing
Then we all got a thing
Yeah, and it's a very good thing
[Verse 1]
Ha, but if in our fears, we don't learn to trust each other
And if in our tears, we don't learn to share with your brother
You know that hate is gonna keep on multiplying
And you know that man is gonna keep right on dying
Yeah
Yeah, yeah
[Refrain]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

The rich got a big piece of this and that (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
