  • When you hear this sound a-comin'
    Hear the drummer drumming
    Won't you join together with the band
    We don't move in any 'ticular direction
    And we don't make no collections
    Won't you join together with the band

    Do you really think I care
    What you eat or what you wear
    Won't you join together with the band
    There's a million ways to laugh
    Ev'ry one's a path
    Come on and join together with the band

    Everybody join together
    Won't you join together
    Come on and join together with the band
    We need to join together
    Come on join together
    Come on and join together with the band

    You don't have to play
    You can follow or lead the way
    Oh won't you join together with the band
    We don't know where we're going
    But the season's right for knowing
    Oh won't you join together with the band

    It's the singer not the song
    That makes the music move along
    Oh won't you join together with the band
    This is the biggest band you'll find
    It's as deep as it is wide
    Come on and join together with the band

    Join together
    (Ev'rybody come on) join together
    Join together with the band
    Join together
    (Ev'rybody come on) join together
    Join together with the band Writer/s: PETER TOWNSHEND
