[Intro]
Life is very short
And there's no time
For fussing and fighting
So I'll ask you once again

[Verse 1]
Try to see it my way
Do I have to keep on talking
Until I can't go on
Boy, you see it your way
You run the risk of knowing
That our love will soon be gone

[Chorus]
We can work it out
We can work it out

[Verse 2]
Hear what you're saying
You can get it wrong
And still you think that it's all right
Hear what I'm saying
We can work it out
And when it's straight, we'll say good night
[Chorus]
We can work it out (Oh baby)
We can work it out

[Bridge]
Life is very short
And there's no time
For fussing and fighting, my friend (Hey, yeah)
I have ways thought
That it's a crime
So I will ask you once again

[Verse 3]
Try to see it my way
Only time will tell if I am right
Or if I am wrong
Boy, you see it your way
There's a chance that we might fall apart
Before too long

[Chorus]
We can work it out (Yeah, yeah)
We can work it out

[Bridge]
Yeah
Life is very short
And there's no time, no more time
For fussing and fighting, my friend
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I've always thought
That it's a crime, dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty
So I will ask you once again
Hey

[Outro]
Yeah, yeah

We can work it out, we can work it out
We can work it out
We can work it out (Oh yeah), we can work it out (Yeah)
We can work it out, we can work it out (Yeah)
We can work it out (Oh, we), we can work it out (Yeah)
We can work it out, we can work it out (Yeah)
We can work it out, we can work it out (Yeah)
We can work it out, we can work it out (Yeah)
We can work it out, we can work it out (Yeah)
