Wilbert Harrison got the ball rolling in 1962 with this tune. The message resonated after Harrison’s recording. Canned Heat performed versions in 1970 and again in 1998, as did Bryan Ferry, although Ferry titled it “let’s Stick Together. Ferry’s rendition in 2018 gets the full, glitzy, orchestral treatment.
Together we will stand
Divided we’ll fall
Come on now people
And let’s get on the ball
And work together
Come on come on let’s work together
Now now people
Say now together we will stand
Every boy girl woman and man
