Let's Get Together
MMC Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't let no one, no one get you down
Cause if they do, if they do I'll be around
I want you near standing here by my side
So my dear wipe those tears from your eyes

Don't let no one, no one get you down
Cause if they do, if they do, I'll be around
I wanna see you round me all the time
I want you to know that I am yours and you are mine

Don't let nobody get you down
Don't let nobody get you down

I'll keep you free
I'll bring you up, never down
You keep me happy all the time




You keep me happy, happy, all the time
You you you you you you, you blow my mind

Let's get busy
Ooo, together
If you believe in love and understanding
Reach out and take me by the hand
Won't you follow me to wonderland, yeah, yeah?
And if you think this world is too demanding
Means don't justify the ends
Look my way, you're gonna see a friend (see a friend)
Chorus
Let's get it together
Everybody
Make it forever
Let's get it together
And make it right
Ooo, let's get it together
(whoa, whoa)
Ooo, let's get together
Ooo, let's get it together
And make it right, hey, hey

We got a future going on
And education's gonna keep us strong, yeah

Break it down, break it down, break it down
Break it down so the drumbeat goes like this
Break the track back

Come on, everybody, with me

I first heard this in 2005 when I got the Radio Disney Kid Jams CD. I also like how the song samples Kraftwerk’s “The Telephone Call” (2:42)

Jane Porter

This is a classic
