[Verse 1:]

If my house flowed down in the river

If all of these walls tumbled down in the storm

If this war took all of my money, all of my pride

But I'd never be poor

[Hook:]

As long as we got each other

There's nothing in the world that can steal my joy

Yeah, as long as we got each other

We can overcome the many's of the world

[Chorus:]

'Cause people don't make the world go round like they used to

But I know if I got one thing,

Baby I know got you

Yeah, you keep me sheltered through the six o'clock blues

And if I know one things gonna be alright

Then I know that it's me and you (oh, oh)

[Verse 2:]

So they say we're running out of time,

Running out of water,

Running out of light

There are far too many problems

And just not enough answers

But if we keep asking they'll gon' tell us what we like

[Hook:]

Oh, but as long as we got each other

There's nothing in the world that can steal my joy

As long as we got each other (we can overcome)

We can overcome the many's of the world

[Bridge:]

They can sell me a story

And tell me we're in danger

But our love will never die

[Chorus:]

'Cause people don't make the world go round like they used to

But I know if I got one thing,

Baby I know got you

You keep me sheltered through the six o'clock blues

Yeah, you keep me sheltered from the six o'clock

Yeah, you keep me sheltered, sheltered, sheltered, sheltered

Baby from- and if I know one thing's gonna be all right

I know that I got my baby

Like the birds that live in the sky

We'll never have to worry

But somehow we'll get by

Let's come together

We can make it alright

Want the world to love each other

Just like you and I

Oh, people don't make the world go round like they used to

But I know if I go to ne thing

Baby, I know I got you

Yeah, you keep me sheltered from the 6 o'clock blues

Yeah, and if I know one things gonna be alright

Then I know that it's me and my beautiful baby
