“United Together” was the first single from Aretha Franklin’s 1980 Aretha album (not to be confused with her 1986 Aretha album).
“United Together” was Aretha’s first release with Clive Davis' Arista Records after ending her 12-year hit-littered tenure with Atlantic Records.

[Verse 1]
We've had a hard time
You and I
Life sent us through some changes
Oh, but somehow we got by
A winding road, a heavy load
Is nothing new, you see
We know that through the bad times
I'll have you and you'll have me
[Chorus]
United together
I finally found the one
Who'll love me forever
We two have just become as one
[Verse 2]
If we just keep this love alive
As time goes on this joy we know
Can't help but grow inside
Some people spend a lifetime
Looking for that special need
I'm so glad my search is over
Darling, I'm so glad that we're
[Chorus]
United together
(United together)
I finally found the one
(I finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever
(Who'll love me forever)
We two have just become
(We two have just become as one)
[Verse 3]
There's nothing we can't overcome
If you let me be your only one
There's nothing we can't overcome
If you let me be your one and only, one and only
Some people spend a lifetime
Looking for that special need
I'm so glad my search is over
Darling, I'm so glad that we're
[Chorus]
United together
(United together)
I finally found the one
(I have finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever
(Who will love me and stand by me forever)
We two have just become [x5]
[Outro]
United together
(United together)
I finally found the one
(I finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever
(Oh, who will love me forever)
We two have just become
