Cynthia Robinson

Today is Cynthia Robinson's birthday. She was born on January 12, 1946 in Sacramento, California. Cynthia Robinson is an musician, best known for being the trumpeter in the popular and influential psychedelic soul/funk band Sly & the Family Stone.

Cynthia Robinson is notable for being one of the first (both) black AND female trumpet player in a major American band, and also for being the only member of the original Family Stone clan to continue working with Sly Stone after the band fell apart in 1975.



I LOVE Cynthia's music! " Everyday People" is one of my favorite songs ever. Its message is more important today than ever. During this recession it is important to find common ground with each other. We got to live together! There are only 7 more days until President Obama is inaugurated. I look forward to him bringing unity to America, and bringing peace to the world by ending the Iraq War.

Sometimes I'm right then I can be wrong

My own beliefs are in my songs

A butcher, a banker, a drummer and then

Makes no difference what group I'm in

I am everyday people

There is a blue one who can't accept

The green one for living witha black ones tryin' to be a skinny one

Different strokes for different folks

And so on and so on and scooby dooby dooby

Ooh sha sha

We gotta live together

I am no better and neither are you

We're all the same whatever we do

You love me you hate me

You know me and then

Still can't figure out the bag I'm in

I am everyday people

There is a new man

That doesn't like the short man

For being such a rich one

That will not help the poor one

Different strokes for different folks

And so on and so on scooby dooby dooby

Ooh sha sha

We got to live together

There is a yellow one that won't

Accept the black one

That won't accept the red one

That won't accept the white one

Different strokes for different folks

And so on and so on and

Scooby dooby dooby

Ooh sha sha

I am everyday people
