You know God in all of his wisdom
Made the pretty flowers that you see
Tell me about it
You know he made them all up different, girl
Just like you and me

Now listen to me
Don't that tell you something boy?
It's heavy, but that's how it's got to be
What's good enough for God almighty
It's good enough for you and me

You know it takes all, all kinds of people
The young, old, and the rich and the poor
It takes all, all kinds of people
Everybody's got to give a little bit more

I don't care if you got no money
'Cause money's just a means to an end
But when you're cold and lonely, girl
You're gonna cry, cry up old dreams

But your love, with love, with love for each other boy
We can get down to where we're feeling free
Every man, woman and child, I'll bet ya
Will live in love and harmony
Together, together

You know it takes all, all kinds of people
The young, old, and the rich and the poor
It takes all, all kinds of people
Everybody's got to give a little bit more

It takes all, all kinds of people
The young, old and the rich and the poor
It takes all, all kinds of people
Everybody's got to give a little bit more

It takes all, all kinds of people
The young, old and the rich and the poor
It takes all, all kinds of people
Everybody's got to give a little bit more
