We Re Gonna Make It Lyrics - You Are Not Alone - Mavis Staples

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, we're gonna make it) 

We're gonna make it, y'all 

(We're gonna make it, we're gonna make it) 

It might seem hard sometimes 

(We're gonna make it, we're gonna make it) 

But don't worry about this 

(We're gonna make it, we're gonna make it) 

We're gonna make it 

(We're gonna make it, we're gonna make it) 

We gotta keep on tryin' 

(We're gonna make it, we're gonna make it) 

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, 

(We're gonna make it, we're gonna make it) 

We're gonna make it 

(We're gonna make it, we're gonna make it) 

We're gonna make it oh yes 

(We're gonna make it, we're gonna make it) 

We're gonna keep on pushin' now, 

(We're gonna make it, we're gonna make it)
