Pointer Sisters - Yes we can can 1974

(Original by Lee Dorsey 1970)

Now's the time for all good men
to get together with one another
We got to iron out our problems
and iron out our quarrels
and try to live as brothers

And try to find a peace within
without stepping on one another
And do respect the women of the world
Remember you all had mothers

We gotta make this land a better land
than the world in which we live
And we got to help each man be a better man
with the kindness that we 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 yes we can can

I know we can make it work
I know we can make it if we try
Oh yes we can, I know we can can
Yes we can

Oh yes we can, I know we can can
And we gotta take care of all the children,
the little children of the world
'cause they're our strongest hope for the future,
the little bitty boys and girls

We got to make this land a better land
than the world in which we live
And we got to help each man be a better man
with the kindness that we 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, yes we can can

Oh I know we can make you
I know we can make it if we only try
Great god you love it.

(Instrumental)

    YEAH I SAID IT!!! NOW WHAT!!! It's not PRESIDENT OBAMA trying to tell a woman what she should do with her body in cases of rape, incest or medical emergency, it's not PRESIDENT OBAMA trying to be judgmental, ignorant, homophobic or holier than thou trying to tell people who they should love or marry, they want to be so religious and follow the bible but they forgot the scripture on judging others. Why don't you go and read a book, get educated, learn something. It kills me you idiots got so bent

    This song is sure needed for all the problems we have in this country not to mention the world! So all you politicians, heads of state, etc. listen and learn! "I know we can work it out!"
