2300 Jackson Street Lyrics

[All]
2300 Jackson Street
2300 Jackson Street
2300 Jackson Street

[Jackie]
Memories of growing up
And working hard
Our childhood passed us by
Mom and Dad
They sacrificed their wants and needs
So we could reach the light

[Randy]
Although the times were tough for us
We knew they both worked hard
They gave us all their hearts could give
And still made room for love

[Marlon]
We're all united
And standing strong
And still today
We're one big family

[All]
2300 Jackson Street
Always home
2300 Jackson Street
Always home
[Michael]
In harmony, together, we'll join
Hands and sing
Our love across the land
Mmm

[Rebbie]
Remember we always said
If we got a chance
We'll plan our work
And work our master plan

[Jermaine]
Although the road of life is tough
It has its ups and downs
We are the one and all
If we stay together, we can conquer all

[Tito Jackson]
We're all united
And standing strong
And still today, we're one big family

[All]
2300 Jackson Street
Always home
2300 Jackson Street
Always home
[Janet singing and Tito speaking]
Mother and Father
They raised us to be
The best that we could be
Now, the stage is set
The curtain's up
The crowd applauds your name
Then give a smile
Let's do your best
[Jermaine]
No matter how far we go

[All]
2300 Jackson Street
Always home
2300 Jackson Street
Always home
