Why Can't We Be Friends Lyrics
Artist: War
Album: Why Can't We Be Friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I seen you 'round for a long long time
I really 'membered you when you drink my wine
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I seen you walkin' down in Chinatown
I called you but you could not look around
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I bring my money to the welfare line
I see you standing in it every time
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
The color of your skin don't matter to me
As long as we can live in harmony
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I'd kinda like to be the President
so I can show you how your money's spent
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Sometimes I don't speak too bright
but yet I know what I'm talking about
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I know you're working for the CIA
they wouldn't have you in the Mafia
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?

We can't be friends 'cause I don't know you. LOL

I'm really into history, espacially with the civil rights movement and the Civil War. I know this sounds kind of wierd, but I read the American Girl books for Addie, a slave. They're actually pretty cool, all about how she escapes slavery in 1964 and then tries to find her family when slavery ends. Sometimes I wish that I lived on a plantation back then so I could tell people off for being mean to my slaves. Maybe, if I'd lived been a teenager in the sixties, I could even be in the boycotts and everything! Even though Martin Luther King Jr. died, it's nice to think that his followers still respected his no-violence attitude. After all, why try to treat the bad people the way they treated the African-Americans? And you have to admire them- even through the 200+ years slavery was practiced, they stayed strong and kept on fighting. Now they blend right in. I think this song just says that all and more. (Although I don't quite know whose point of view it's from.)

oh my god i!!!!!!!! realy love this song it so great, i think all hostile people should learn that song, people like u,i write it down so i can learn it but i'm very friendly.
K so I def heard this song the first time at the end of Lethal Weapon 4 or smthng way long ago and I member one time one of my bfs got into a fight with me and another of our bfs, so we called her and sang her this song using three-way. she def cracked up and started talkin to us agin x)
i think that this is a great song because its tryin to settel war. and its very catchy
YEAHH!!! WHY the fuk can we be friends!!! xD
Check Bella's comment a little bit below mine and listen to the song.... What, is Bella on Crack? or does she have a very serious hearing defect?
it's a beautiful song.
all over the world why can't we be friends
iss is a maggiiiiccc song :D
I love this song sooo much. I also love it in bridge to terabithia. It really makes me cry as well.I really don't consider this song as rock. But what evs
ud malparidos q viven en el sotano d sus papas maricones agan algo.
GRACAIS ESTA CANCION ME LEVANTO EL DIA
i'd be better if it'd have better verses. i don't mean its bad but it's just advice
Sean you are correct, Bella was wrong about the lyrics. I'd also like to add a correction.. It's not "sometimes i don't speak too bright". the correct lyrics are "sometimes i don't speak right, but yet i know what i'm talkin' about". Trust me, i knew the drummer =]. Peace everyone!
Is Simple, is fantastic, is wonderful, this song is very good!!

This Songs In The New Final Destination :L Perfectly Timed In The Film.
Hey Joey the slaves were freed by Abe Lincoln in 1865 so I think u mean she escaped in 1864 and martin Luther king jr. Died after he acheved equal rights so his followers would have no reason for violence anyway they already won and also if u lived back then in the time of slaves you would have been killed if u spoke out agaist slavery in the south besides u would have been brought up thinking slavery was good not how u people think now so u probably would have no problem with slavery lastly wat does this have to do with this song?
I think it is a beautiful song and those who do not like should mind there own business. it is a song u do not here every day
i love this song
ello poppit my name billybobhuntersonpocketkeru i come from land of sector 7, i have a crush on darth vader and a odd fear of blueberry muffins... got a promblem?... i think not!
this song is kinda crappy cuz all the majority of lyrics is "why cant we be friends" its like somebody from elementary making a song just to pass and go on to the next level... in the same sense as making a trash song to be just heard... i think they should had reduced the amount of "why cant we be friends" lines with more better and sensible lyrics...
i love this song all time favorite..... i ain't kidding!! =P
i like this song,originally i heard it from the movie "bridge to tarabithia". :)

go fuck yourselves you bunch of tree hugging hippies, and fuck you about you slavery and shit, it was better when we had slaves working in our fuckin gardens
love this cuz of terabithia!
Well i'm no hippie, and i'm against slavery, but this is a good song..not the best...and far from the worst....the lyrics are right and i think that more people should be writting songs like this one...songs that have more depth than what they did last week with they're friends at a party or whatever it is that all theese song writters are writting about.
I love this song. Good for a sesh
This song is actually about racism and how they want equality...
Does anyone knows when was it written?
i wasn't born when this song came out, but i still can't get enough of it...just a great song
i hate this song so much at i will get into a fight the next person play this song and the song is crap!!!!lol
thank u for put the lyrics
the song has simple lyrics but they're meaningful. The lyrics aren't just about racism. it was made with the cold war in mind; when it first came out it was broadcasted simultaneously to American astronauts and Russian cosmonauts.
I like why can't we be friends song
@ the end thats alot of why cant we be friends but i luv this song so much.
Where do I listen to the song?

I really like this song but the way they sang it Walt Disney's Bridge To Terabithia is way much better. That movie made my tough heart cry.
That movie made me feel sad for three days, it really touched my heart so I bought its original DVD.
