Yes We Can

Maria Muldaur


Now is the time
Now is the time for all good men
To get together with one another

Iron out our problems
And iron out our quarrels
And try to live as brothers
And try to find a piece within
Without stepping on one another
And do respect the women of the world

Just remember you all have mothers
Make this land a better land
Than the world in which we live
And help each man be a better man
With the kindness that you give

I know we can make it
I know darn well we can work it out
Oh, yes we can, I know we can, can
Yes, we can, can
Why can't we?
If we wanna get, yes, we can, can
I know we can make it a world
I know we can make it if we try

Oh, yes we can, I know we can, can
Yes, we can, can, great, got your money
Yes, we can, I know we can, can

Take care of the children
The children of the world
They're our strongest hope for the future
The little bitty boys and girls
Make this land a better land
Than the world in which we live
And help each man be a better man
With the kindness that you give

I know we can make it (I know that we can)
I know darn well we can work it out
Oh, yes we can, I know we can, can
Yes, we can, can
Why can't we?
If we wanna get, yes, we can, can
I know we can make it a world
I know we can make it if we try
Oh, yes we can, I know we can, can
Yes, we can, can, great, got your money
Yes we can, I know we can can
