Lyrics

[Intro]

Got to build our love on one foundation

Got to build our love on one foundation

Got to build our love on one foundation

[Verse 1]

There will never be, yeah, no love at all

There will never be no love at all

[Verse 2]

Got to put aside them segregation, yeah

Got to put aside them organization

Got to put aside them denomination

[Verse 3]

There will, there will never be no love at all

I mean, there will never be no love at all

[Chorus]

Got to build our love on one foundation

So build our love on one foundation

We got to build our love on one foundation

Come, let us build our love on one solid foundation

Got to build our love on one foundation

Got to build our love on one foundation

Or there will never be a single drop of love

You won't have no freedom, yeah

[Verse 4]

Got to come together

We are birds of a feather

We got to come together

'Cause we are birds of a feather

We got to come together

'Cause we are birds of a feather

[Verse 5]

Or there will never be, Lord, have mercy, no love at all

There will never be, yeah-yeah, no love at all

[Verse 6]

We also got to realize we are one people, yeah

Got to realize that we are one people, yeah

We got to realize we are one people

[Verse 7]

Or there will never be no love at all

There will never, never, never be no love at all

[Outro]

Got to build our love on one foundation

Got to build our love on one foundation

Got to build our love on one foundation

Got to build our love on one foundation

Got to build our love on one foundation
