[Intro: Kanye West & Timmy Thomas]
Until, they don't know
Father to the noon, now not
Wow, wow, wow
Tell me why? Tell me why? Tell me why?
Mmm, why can't we live together?
That's so perfect with the extra voice in there, that shit's the shit
Tell me why? Tell me why?
Mmm, why can't we live together?

[Chorus: Kanye West & Timmy Thomas]
Everybody wants to live together
Why can't we live together?
We gotta pump that up
That's the whole room right there, likе
Baseline? Yeah yеah

[Verse 2: Kanye West & Timmy Thomas]
No more wars, no more wars, no more war
That's like how I do my, that's really close to how I do my adlibs
Mmm, just a little peace in this world
No more wars, no more war
All we want is some peace in this world

[Chorus: Timmy Thomas]
Everybody wants to live together
Why can't we live together?
[Bridge: Timmy Thomas]
Can't live, can't live
Can't live together
Can't live together

[Verse 3: Timmy Thomas]
No matter, no matter what color
Mmm, you are still my brother
I said, no matter, no matter what color
Mmm, you are still my brother

[Chorus: Timmy Thomas]
Everybody wants to live together
Why can't we live together?
