Mavis Staples – We Get By lyrics
(feat. Ben Harper)

We get by on love and faith
We get by with a smile on our face
We get by with help from our kin
We get by through thick and through thin

We get by
We get by
No matter what happens, I'll be there for you
We get by

Was just the other day, I heard from my old friend
She was going through changes once again
Matters of the head, matters of the heart
Maybe too early to tell, but it's never to late to start

We get by
We get by
No matter how long, I'll be waiting here for you
We get by
We get by
We get by
No matter how long, I'll be waiting
We get by

Day by day
Line by line
If you don't have yours
You sure got mine
We get by
We get by day by day
We get by
And I always

We get by
We get by
No matter how it happens, I'll be there for you
We get by
We get by
We get by
No matter how long, I'll be waiting here for you
We get by

No matter how long, I'll come running
We get by (I'll be waiting)
Oh, no matter what happens, I'll be there for you
Oh... oh yeah
