stevesongs - all in this together lyrics
[verse 1]
five folks found themselves in a mess
stuck in a boat in the middle of a watery wilderness one day
one paddled east, one paddled west
one north, one south, and you can guess
how far they made it rowin’ that way
each one paddled ’til his arms were sore
and gave no heed to the other four
and the boat never moved an inch or more that day
the one in the middle looked up and saw
the sky filling up with clouds
he said, “we’re all going to be in trouble here
if we can’ help each other out”
[chorus]
he said, “we’re all in this together
and we will never ever get there alone
we’re all in this together
we’ll never ever get there alone”
[verse 2]
nineteen hundred fifty five
segregation, oppression, and fear were thriving
a nation pullin’ apart at the seams
old jim crow in the driver’s seat
of those buses in montgomery
people driven to extremes
and one in the middle stood up to say
“we all must find a better way
no one is free until everyone is free
live together as brothers
or perish together as fools
i can’t be what i ought to be until you are too”
[chorus]
we’re all in this together
and we will never ever get there alone
we’re all in this together
no one watches on their own
[bridge]
well he had a dream
that we live out our creed
and we hold these truths to be self+evident
that we are all created equal
and he said, “darkness cannot drive out darkness
only light can do that
hate cannot drive out hate
only love can do that
darkness cannot drive out darkness
only love can do that
hate cannot drive out hate
only love can do that”
[chorus]
we’re all in this together
and we will never ever get there alone
we’re all in this together
no one watches on their own
hey, we’re all in this together
no one watches on their own
