[Chorus: Jackson 5 + Jermaine]
Through thick and thin
I will always love you
Through thick and thin
I'm always thinking of you

[Verse 1: Jermaine + Michael + (Jackson 5)]
Today did I forget
To say I love you, girl (I'm sorry)
Hey, don't scold me yet
I'll prove it a hundred ways (don't worry)
In this world of ups and downs
Baby, you're the one, the thing I found
You saved me from a place we both have been
Called lonely (lonely)

[Chorus: Jackson 5 + Jermaine]
Through thick and thin
I will always love you
Through thick and thin
I'm always thinking of you

[Verse 2: Jermaine + Michael + (Jackson 5)]
When things aren't going right
I'll hold you in my arms (don't worry)
You know you make me proud
If ever I let you down (I'm sorry)
Well, I'm going to prove my love to you
Each day that I live my life with you
Through good and bad weather
We're together (together)

[Chorus: Jackson 5 + Jermaine]
Through thick and thin
I will always love you
Through thick and thin
I'm always thinking of you, ooh baby
Through thick and thin
I will always love you, yeah yeah
Through thick and thin
I'm always thinking of you
Through thick and thin
I will always love you, yeah yeah
Through thick and thin
I'm always thinking of you
Through thick and thin
I will always love you, ooh baby
Through thick and thin...

The Jackson 5

The Jackson 5 were originally formed in 1963 under the name, The Jackson Brothers. The founding members were Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, and Marlon. Michael would join the group as the lead singer a year later, a move which pushed Jermaine to sing the backing vocals and play the lead guitar.

After participating in a series of talent shows, they entered the professional music scene in 1967, signing with Steeltown Records and releasing ten singles. In 1969, they left Steeltown Records in order to sign with Motown.

In 1975, most of the Jacksons had opted out of recording any more music for Motown, expressing desires to have creative control over their songs, as well as royalties. Learning that they were earning only 2.8% of royalties from Motown, Joe Jackson, the father and manager of the group, began to negotiate a lucrative contract with Epic records, which offered a royalty rate of 20% per record. The deal was completed in June 1975. As Motown owned the name The Jackson 5, the group simply renamed themselves The Jacksons.
