Let's Stay Together
Run DMC ft. Jagged Edge Lyrics

Let's stay together
We should remain united as a team

Yo, yeah, DMC man
The singer is introducing himself as DMC man

In the place to be
The singer is being present at the specific location

Yo, this song is dedicated to (word)
The song is meant for a specific person/audience

(whether good days, happy or sad)
The artist intends to be there for the person/audience in good and bad times

To all of those that's been down with each other since day one
The singer appreciates people who have been together since the beginning

Aha, let's keep it together
The singer emphasizes the need for unity

Now we've been all around the world
The artist has experienced various things

From the corner of the block to the top of the world and back
The artist has travelled to diverse places

We're the royalty on the ave, ain't nobody ever have
The artist considers himself/partner superior to others

And the brand new jet black Cadillac
The singer owns a new luxury car

We've been down since day one
The artist/partner have been together for a long time

And no matter where I go people want to see him next to me
The singer's partner is loved and appreciated by many

They say "what's up with d?" I used to jam all across the land
People ask about the singer and his music

The coliseum, even message, when raising hell were cassettes
The singer performs in various locations

In the shelves, and the plush hotel after every show
The artist stays in exclusive hotels after performances

We were just kissing the mic, living the life
The artist and partner enjoyed performing and earning a living

Of MTV and the radio
The singer and partner featured on TV and radio stations

And so you jay and me said "it's 83'"
The singer and partner shared a common experience in 1983

We're living and sticking together like a family
The artist/partner share a close bond

And no matter what, the rule must be
The artist/partner must remain together

That it's guaranteed that I'm for you, and you for me
The artist/partner are devoted to each other

Let's stay together let's stay together
Let's remain united

Loving you whether, love is good and bad
The artist/partner will love each other in good and bad times

Yo, my love of the mic, can't touch my love for my wife
The singer values his partner more than his music career

Baby I ain't going nowhere, specially the way you smile
The singer intends to remain with his partner due to her smile

When you have my child, or when I rock the crowd
The singer values his partner during happy moments

Can't wait to be right there
The artist is eager to be with his partner

Even my kids that ain't yours is still yours
The artist acknowledges his partner's love and care for his kids from a previous relationship

Cause you love him and treat him like your very own
The singer is grateful for his partner's love and care towards his kids

We be holding hands and I be holding doors
The singer/partner show love through small acts

And when my mother in-law spend time alone
The artist's partner cares for his mother-in-law

Call her about five hundred times a day
The artist's partner communicates frequently with his mother-in-law

When I'm often gone cause I'm on the road
The artist sometimes travels due to his career

And when I'm on the phone, you know I want to be home
The singer wants to be home despite being on the phone

Cause that's the one and only spot where I really belong
The artist feels at home with his partner

You know our love, called you the preachers' wife
The singer associates his partner with a virtuous title

But the keys to bed lead living it up
The singer values sex with his partner

And everybody would know, them seen us in the video
The singer and partner featured in a popular video

On the dance floor straight cutting it up
The artist and partner had fun dancing

I love you baby
The artist loves his partner

To me, you mean the world
The partner is highly valued by the singer

So no, no matter what, let's stay together
The singer emphasizes the need for unity

In the good life, happy or sad
The artist intends to remain united in both good and bad times

You mean the world, no matter what is it you say or do
The partner's actions/words have no effect on his value to the artist

I always will be there for you

Ain't no beats to lead somebody you love
The singer emphasizes the value of love over material things

Best thing in life, is to have somebody ya heard
The artist finds joy in having a partner
