We re Gonna Make It
by G. Barge / B. Davis / R. Miner / C. Smith 
recording of 1993 
from 
Blues Summit (MCA 10710) 
We may not have a cent 
To pay the rent 
But we're gonna make it 
We may have to eat beans everyday 
But we're gonna make it 
And if a job is hard to find 
And we have to stand 
In the welfare line 
I've got your love 
And I know you got mine 
And we're gonna make it 
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 hardships alone 
We're gonna make it, I know we will 
'Cause togetherness 
Brings peace of mind 
We can't stay down all of the time 
I've got your love 
And you know you've got mine 
And we're gonna make it 
I know we will 
The car may be old 
Our two rooms cold 
But we're gonna make it 
And though we can't spare 
A roach a crumb 
But we're gonna make it 
I know we will 
And if I have to carry around a sign 
That says, "Help the deaf 
The dumb and the blind" 
I've got your love 
You know you've got mine 
We're gonna make it 
I know we will 
We may not have a home 
Just to call our own 
But we're gonna make it 
I know we will 
We may have to fight hardships alone 
But we're gonna make it 
I know we will 
'Cause togetherness 
Brings peace of mind 
We can't stay down all of the time 
I've got your love 
You know you got mine 
We're gonna make it 
I know we will 
We're gonna make it 
We're gonna make it, baby 
I know we're gonna make it, baby
