Lyrics We're All In This Thing Together - The O'Jays

We're all in this thing together
We gotta work it out
We gotta work it out
We're all in this thing together
We gotta work it out
We gotta work it out

Just because you live high on a hill
And I live down here on the ground
All the things that are going on that's affectin' me
Indirectly affects you whether you know it or not

We're all in this thing together
We gotta work it out
We gotta work it out
We're all in this thing together
We gotta work it out
We gotta work it out

Don't you see they're messing up the water
Where in the world can we get more water from?
Oh, how smart can a man be
When he's polluting precious air?
That kind of thing won't get us anywhere

We're all in this thing together
We gotta work it out
We gotta work it out
We're all in this thing together
We gotta work it out
We gotta work it out

The priorities of life are confused
Being misused every day
They're sending rockets to Mars
While people on earth they starve
How long are we going to let this keep going on?

We're all in this thing together
We gotta work it out
We gotta work it out
We're all in this thing together
We gotta work it out
We gotta work it out

You sisters and brothers
Brothers and sisters
We all, we all gotta make the stand
We got to stand up
We got to stand up
For the creator's
The creator's plan
So work it out
We gotta work it out...
