We may not have a cent to pay the rent

But we're gonna make it I know we will

We may have to eat beans every day

But we're gonna make it I know we will

And if a job is hard to find

And we have to stand in the welfare line

I've got your love and you know you got mine

We're gonna make it I know we will

We may not have a home to call our own

But we're gonna make it I know we will

We may have to fight hardship alone

But we're gonna make it I know we will

'Cause togetherness brings peace of mind

We can't stay down all the time

I've got your love and you know you got mine

We're gonna make it I know we will

Our car may be old our two rooms cold

But we're gonna make it I know we will

We can't even spare a roach a crumb

But we're gonna make it I know we will

And if I have to carry around a sign

Sayin' "Help the deaf the dumb and the blind"

I got your love and you know you got mine

We're gonna make it I know we will

We're gonna make it

We're gonna make it y'all

It might seem hard sometimes

But don't worry about this

We're gonna make it

We gotta keep on tryin'

Things can't stay wrong for us always no no no

We're gonna make it

We're gonna make it

We're gonna make it oh yes

We're gonna keep on pushin' now
