Lyrics

[Intro: Aretha Franklin & (James Brown) Don't you think it's about time that we stop playing games? (I don't know) I mean, we both know each other like the back of our hands (You're sure) And the answer is so simple So why don't you listen to me? (Okay) Just for once Listen [Chorus: Aretha Franklin & (James Brown) We can be winners together (Winners together) Or losers apart (Don't you know it, baby?) But we got to decide (I know, woman) Oh, what's right for our hearts (Ooh-ooh, yeah) We are happy together (So very happy, girl) And miserable apart (Feel so bad now) But why should we be divided (Ooh-ooh) When it's breaking our hearts? (Ooh) [Verse 1: Aretha Franklin & (James Brown) We've been wearing funny smiles Like two circus clowns (Yeah, yeah, yeah) And pretending to be so happy (Uh-huh now) When the other's not around When we are not together, baby (It feels so bad, baby) The loneliness shows on our face (Yes, it does now) But the minute that we're in each other's arms (Mhm) The world is one happy place [Chorus: Aretha Franklin & (James Brown) 'Cause we're winners together (Winners together) Oh, and losers apart (I don't want to lose now) And if we don't know by now (Tell me, baby) We're not very smart (No, we're not, girl) We are happy together (So very happy now) And miserable apart (So miserable) So why should we be divided, baby? (We can't do it, girl) When it's breaking our hearts (No, no, no, no, no) [Verse 2: Aretha Franklin & (James Brown) Together we have spent The happiest days of our lives But we're about to blow it all, baby Listening to our friends' advice (Well) We thought things would be better If we said goodbye (Yes, we did, baby) But, oh, how foolish we were But I wonder, huh Did we really try? [Chorus: Aretha Franklin & (James Brown) And we're winners together (Winners together) Oh, and losers apart (Losers apart) So let's give it a try, baby (I'm ready, baby) And make a new start (Come on, girl) We are happy together (So very happy, girl) Ooh, and miserable apart (Ooh-ooh, yes, apart) Why should we be divided, baby? (Tell me, baby) When it's breaking our hearts? (Come on, baby) [Outro: Aretha Franklin & (James Brown) We're winners together (Yes, we are now) Ooh, and losers apart (Tell the truth, girl) So let's not listen to all the people, baby (Oh, oh) And listen to our hearts, yeah (Come on, girl) We're happy together (Yes, we are now) Oh, and losers apart (Tell the truth, woman) Let's not listen to the people, baby, yeah (No, no, no, no) Let's just listen to our hearts (Yeah, yeah) 'Cause we're happy together (So very happy, girl) Oh, and miserable apart (Ooh-ooh, yeah) Oh, and losers apart (Tell the truth) Let's not listen to the people, baby (No, no, no, no) Let's just listen to our hearts (Yeah, yeah) We're happy together (Yes, we are now) Oh, and losers apart (Tell the truth, girl) Let's not listen to the people, baby (No, no, no, no) Let's just listen to our hearts (Yeah, yeah) We're happy together (So very happy, girl) Oh, and miserable apart (Ooh, ooh, yeah) Oh, and losers apart (Tell the truth, girl) Let's not listen to the people, baby (No, no, no, no) Let's just listen to our hearts (Yeah, yeah) We're happy together (Yes, we are now) Oh, and losers apart (Tell the truth, girl) Let's not listen to the people, baby (No, no, no) Let's just listen to our hearts (Yeah, yeah) We're happy together (So very happy, girl) Oh, and miserable apart (Ooh, ooh, yeah) Oh, and losers apart (Tell the truth, girl) Let's not listen to the people, baby (No, no, no, no) Let's just listen to our hearts (Yeah, yeah)
