Lyrics The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Harmony

Long ago the brothers fought

But still the tears are shed

So here we stand no wiser than before

Still the hunter rules the hearts of men

Whether I'm right or I'm wrong

Too weak or strong

Sure seems plain to me

Too young or old

Too shy or bold

We all need help

Just to move the stone

Those special favors to light the road

Songbird when you comin' home

On the highway the going's tough

It's harmony that splits the dark

How long (Sha-la-la-la-la-lala)

Sing it sweet need the harmony

Brother it's taken too long

(Sha-la-la-la-la-lala)

What makes it shine is the harmony

If I'm right or I'm wrong

Too weak or strong

Whether I flop or I steal the show

If we sink or we swim

We lose or win

What's yours and mine is the harmony

Those special favors you're on your own

Songbird when you comin' home

On the highway the going's rough

It's harmony that splits the dark

How long (Sha-la-la-la-la-lala)

Sing it sweet need the harmony

Brother it's taken too long

(Sha-la-la-la-la-lala)

What makes it shine is the harmony

It's the harmony

Sweet harmony

What makes it shine is the harmony

It's the harmony

(Sha-la-la-la-la-lala)

Swee-e-e-e-e-et harmony

Harmony

It's taken too long (Sha-la-la-la-la-lala)

What makes it shine is the harmony

It's the harmony (Sha-la-la-la-la-lala)

Harmony

Swee-e-e-e-e-et harmony
