Canned Heat - Let's Work Together
Canned Heat's song "Let's Work Together" is a cover of a track originally written and recorded by Wilbert Harrison, who first released it in 1962 under the title "Let’s Stick Together".
Harrison reworked the song as "Let’s WORK Together" in 1968, and it achieved chart success.
Canned Heat recorded their version in 1969, with Bob Hite providing vocals and Alan Wilson contributing slide guitar.
The song was initially prepared for release as a single in December 1969 but was cancelled due to the popularity of Harrison's version.
In the UK, where Harrison's single did not generate significant interest, Canned Heat's version was released in January 1970 and became their biggest hit, reaching number two on the UK Singles Chart over a fifteen-week run.
In the United States, the song was first released on August 3, 1970, as part of their album Future Blues, with the American single following on August 25, 1970, and peaking at number 26 on the Billboard Hot 100.
The track is categorized under genres such as Rock, Pop, and Country Rock.
The lyrics promote unity and collective effort, with lines like "Together we'll stand, divided we'll fall" and "Let's work together".
The song was later included in the 1989 compilation album
Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Together we'll stand, divided we'll fall
Come on now, people, let's get on the ball
[Chorus]
And work together come on, come on
Let's work together, now now, people
Because together we will stand
Every boy, every girl and man
[Verse 2]
Before when things go wrong as they sometimes will
And the road you travel, it stays all uphill
[Chorus]
Let's work together, come on, come on
Let's work together, aw
You know together we will stand
Every boy, girl, woman and man
[Verse 3]
Oh well now, two or three minutes, two or three hours
What does it matter now in this life of ours?
[Chorus]
Let's work together, come on, come on
Let's work together, now now, people
Because together we will stand
Every boy, every woman and man
[Bridge]
Aw, come on now
Aw, come on, let's work together
[Verse 4]
Oh well now, make someone happy, make someone smile
Let's all work together and make life worthwhile
[Chorus]
Let's work together, come on, come on
Let's work together, now now, people
Because together we will stand
Every boy, girl, woman and man
[Verse 5]
Oh well now, come on, you people, walk hand in hand
Let's make this world of ours a good place to stand
[Chorus]
And work together, come on, come on
Let's work together, now now, people
Because together we will stand
Every boy, girl, woman and man
Aw, yeah
[Bridge]
[Outro]
Well now, together we will stand
Every boy, girl, woman and man
Aw, yeah
