Why Can't We Be Happy

(앨범: Come Together - 1970)

I'm so full of love yet I'm sad everyday
How can we keep on living this way?
Now, we are in a war, people dying everyday
With a little love, it'll all fade away

Can't we all be happy, the way it used to be?
Love one another and let this world be free

Hippies in the streets, they're learning how to roam
And the Black folks are in the ghetto, they're even burning their home
But they are trying to get a message for the whole world to see
How happy we all could be if we all were free

So, why can't we be happy, the way it used to be?
Love one another and let this world be free

People are hating more and more everyday
Understanding is getting slowly further away
Now, what's gonna happen when it all comes to a head
There'll be no world to live in, 'cause we'll all be dead

So, why can't we be happy, the way it used to be?
Love one another and let this world be free
