Tug of War

McCartney Paul

It's a tug of war 
What with one thing and another 
It's a tug of war 
We expected more 
But with one thing and another 
We were trying to outdo each other 
In a tug of war 

In another world 
In another world we could 
Stand on top of the mountain 
With our flag unfurled 
In a time to come 
In a time to come we will be 
Dancing to the beat played 
On a different drum 

It's a tug of war 
Though I know I mustn't grumble 
It s a tug of war 
But I can't let go 
If I do you'll take a tumble 
And the whole thing is going to crumble 
It's a tug of war 

Pushing pushing, pulling pulling 
Pushing and pulling 

In years to come they may discover 
What the air we breathe and the life we lead 
Are all about 
But it won't be soon enough 
Soon enough for me 
No it won't be soon enough 
Soon enough for me 

In another world we could 
Stand on top of the mountain 
With our flag unfurled 
In a time to come we will be 
Dancing to the beat played 
On a different drum 

We will be dancing to the beat 
Played on a different drum 
We will be dancing to the beat 
Played on a different drum 

It's a tug of war, (a tug of war, a tug of war)
What with one thing and another 
It's a tug of war 
We expected more 
But with one thing and another 
In a tug of war 

Pushing pushing, pulling pulling 
Pushing and pulling
