Mavis Staples
All In It Together
[Chorus 1]
We're all in it together
Every boy and every girl
We've all got to get it together
Everybody in the world

[Verse 1]
I gave up on hating you
Just for hating me
I gave up on hating you
A long time ago

[Refrain]
I need you
You need me

[Chorus 2]
Now we're all in it together
We've got to get it right
We've all got to get it together
Everybody's on the same side

[Verse 2]
I gave up on hurting
'Cause it was hurting me
I surrendered to my heart
A long time ago
[Refrain]
I need you
You need me

[Verse 3]
I don't need any enemies
I want you to be my friend
Ain't it true we're all a family?
Now let me tell you again

[Refrain]
I need you
You need me

[Chorus]
Now we're all in it together
Every boy and every girl
We've all got to do a lot better
Everybody in the world

[Verse 4]
I gave up on hating you
For hating me
I surrendered to my heart
A long time ago
[Outro]
I forgave you
Now forgive me
I need you
You need me
