text: We were just ten years old when we bonded for life
  In that Maple tree, you and me, and my old timer knife
  The trade we made with the blade sealed a deal like no others
  Yeah, it hurt like hell but not a teardrop fell
  We were blood brothers
  Same soul with a different shade of skin
  Blood is thicker than water
  We were thick as thieves through the thick and thin
  Growing up in a world calling us different colors
  But it was more than black and white
  Wish everyone would act like blood brothers
  Remember when you busted up my lip and I dotted your right eye?
  I liked your sister, so I kissed her behind the bleachers in junior high
  Man you were red hot mad, we got suspended from school
  And we spend the rest of the day fishing our problems away
  Cause we were blood brothers
  Same soul with a different shade of skin
  Blood is thicker than water
  We were thick as thieves through the thick and thin
  Growing up in a world calling us different colors
  But it was more than black and white
  Wish everyone would act like blood brothers
  Blood brothers
  When we learn to look through His eyes in heaven above
  Well see with all hate and heartache theres nothing stronger than love
  When we learn to look through His eyes in heaven above
  Well see with all hate and heartache theres nothing stronger than love

  Growing up in a world calling us different colors

  Same soul with a different shade of skin
  Blood is thicker than water
  We were thick as thieves through the thick and thin

  But it was more than black and white
  Wish everyone would act like blood brothers
  Blood brothers
