Together we'll stand
Divided we'll fall
Come on now, people
Let's get on the ball
And work together
Come on, come on
Let's work together
Now, now people
Because together we will stand
Every boy, every girl and man
People, when things go wrong
As they sometimes will
And the road you travel
It stays all uphill
Let's work together
Come on, come on
Let's work together, ah
You know together we will stand
Every boy, girl, woman and man
Oh well now, two or three minutes
Two or three hours
What does it matter now
In this life of ours
Let's work together
Come on, come on
Let's work together
Now, now people
Because together we will stand
Every boy, every woman and man
Ah, come on
Ah, come on, let's work together
Well now, make someone happy
Make someone smile
Let's all work together
And make life worthwhile
Let's work together
Come on, come on
Let's work together
Now, now people
Because together we will stand
Every boy, girl, woman and man
Oh well now, come on you people
Walk hand in hand
Let's make this world of ours
A good place to stand
And work together
Come on, come on
Let's work together
Now, now people
Because together we will stand
Every boy, girl, woman and man
Ah, yeah
Well now, together we will stand
Every boy, girl, woman and man
Ah, yeah

I'm going up the country. Baby, don't you wanna go?
I'm going up the country. Baby, don't you wanna go?
I'm going to some place where I've never been before.
I'm going, I'm going where the water tastes like wine.
I'm going where the water tastes like wine.
We can jump in the water, stay drunk all the time.
I'm gonna leave this city, got to get away.
I'm gonna leave this city, got to get away.
All this fussing and fighting, man, you know I just can't stay.
Now, Baby, pack your leaving trunk.
You know we got to leave today.
Just exactly where we going I just can not say,
But we might even leave the U.S.A.
'Cause it's a brand new game, and I want to play.
No use of you running or screaming and crying
'Cause you got a home as long as I got mine.
