AL GREEN - LETS STAY TOGETHER LYRICS

Lets Stay Together Lyrics

Let's Stay Together
Al Green
(Al Green - Willie Mitchell - Al Jackson)

I, I'm so in love with you
Whatever you want to do
Is all right with me
'Cause you make me feel so brand new
And I want to spend my life with you

Since, since we've been together
Loving you forever
Is what I need
Let me be the one you come running to
I'll never be untrue

Let's, let's stay together
Lovin' you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad

Whether times are good or bad, happy or sad

Why, why some people break up
Then turn around and make up
I just can't see
You'd never do that to me (would you, baby)
Staying around you is all I see
(Here's what I want us to do)

(repeat to fade):
Let's, we oughta stay together
Loving you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad

i can't someone would actually say al green sounds like garbage... this is a classic hit. i think he sounds soulful and heartfelt... i'd like to see anyone that talks do better.

i`m sorry but i`m just NOT feeling this song! Green just sounds too plain and ordinary when he sings this song, it just sounds like garbage! and to be honest, Justin G. doesn`t really sound any worse. in fact, he might actually sound slighty better than Green does.

Even Al Green's most gossamer pop songs hearken back to his gospel roots, so it makes perfect sense that 1971's "Let's Stay Together" — though for all intents and purposes a simple call for romantic reconciliation — resonates most deeply as a spiritual appeal, a Memphis soul sermon for a nation ripped apart by assassinations, riots, and betrayals. Green's lone number one hit, "Let's Stay Together" radiates compassion and understanding — there are no accusations, no finger-pointing, just tolerance and love with no strings attached. There are also no specifics — racial, political, or otherwise (Al Green actually said this was written as a "political" song, not a "love" song)— just the heartfelt plea not to give up, "whether times are good or bad, happy or sad." Willie Mitchell's lush production is subtly insistent, enhancing the immediacy of the song's message with staccato horns and a galloping beat while tempering its passion with cotton-candy strings and a silky guitar lead; he and Green made a lot of great records together, but none quite so perfect as this

I think this is one of the best love songs ever written. Not only is al green's voice the most soulful one i have ever had the pleasure of listening to, but it has such beautiful lyrics. I agree, justin guarrini has NO right singing this. Leave a good song alone, pal. amazing song..

Yo, this is the best song. It makes me think of all the crazy relationships we get into. So whether it be rain or shine, good days or bad days if u love some then love them unconditionally. Al Green is a genius when it comes to these songs. I love them and I think there are a few lessons to be learned. All my men take notes!nahmean? love always,b
