This Is How the Work Gets Done
One man’s got a big idea
Another man comes along
And puts some dollars into it, yeah
One boy puts a brick on the ground
Another one comes along
And puts one right on top of it, yeah

Hey, hey, this is how the work gets done
Sure 'nuff, listen to me
Hey, hey, this is how the work gets done

One girl’s got a way with words
Someone who’s connected
Is gonna get the words heard
One man’s got a powerful faith
Another man comes along
He’ll see the fruit of it

Hey, hey, oh, this is how the work gets done
Yes, it is, sure 'nuff
Hey, hey, this is how the work gets done

Ooh!
Come on and play a song with me

I used to think that I could do it all alone
Now I know, I can use all the help I can get
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Hey, hey, alright, this is how the work gets done
Hey, hey, this is how the work gets done

Hey, yeah!

Hey, hey, this is how the work gets done
Sure 'nuff
Hey, hey, this is how the work gets done
Hey, hey, this is how the work gets done...
