Side by Side

By

Pupils from Diaz Primary in Port Elizabeth sing ‘Side by Side’ (in Xhosa) at the Nelson Mandela Bay Business Chamber 2014 Leadership Conference. On the right is Akhona Nkumanda.

“Side by Side” with lyrics by Gus Kahn and music by Harry M. Woods was written in 1927.

“Side By Side”

Oh, we ain’t got a barrel of money

Maybe we’re ragged and funny

But we travel along, singin’ our song

Side by side

Don’t know what’s comin’ tomorrow

Maybe it’s trouble and sorrow

But we travel the road, sharin’ our load

Side by side

Through all kinds of weather

What if the sky should fall

Just as long as we’re together

It doesn’t matter at all

When they’ve all had their quarrels and parted

We’ll be the same as we started

Just travelin’ along, singin’ our song

Side by side

Through all kinds of weather

What if the sky should fall

Just as long as we’re together

It doesn’t matter at all

When they’ve all had their quarrels and parted

We’ll be the same as we started

Just travelin’ along, singin’ our song

Side by side

Side by side

Side by side

Just travelin’ along, singin’ our song

Side by, side by, side by side
