Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
Mmm, why can't we live together?
Tell me why, tell me why
Mmm, why can't we live together?
Everybody wants to live together
Why can't we be together?
[Verse 2]
No more war, no more war, no more war
Mmm, just a little peace
No more war, no more war
All we want is some peace in this world
Everybody wants to live together
Why can't we be together?
[Chorus]
No matter, no matter what colour
Mmm, you are still my brother
I said, no matter, no matter what colour
Mmm, you are still my brother
Everybody wants to live together
Why can't we be together?
[Verse 3]
Everybody wants to live
Everybody's got to be together
Ooh, everybody wants to live
Everybody's got to be together
[Bridge]
Ooh, ooh, ah, la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Everybody's got to be together
Everybody wants to be together
[Chorus]
I said, no matter, no matter what colour
Mmm, you are still my brother
I said, no matter, no matter what colour
You are still my brother
Everybody wants to live together
Why can't we be together?
[Outro]
Mmm-hmm, mmm-hmm
Gotta live together
Together
