Come and sing a simple song of freedom |
|
Sing it like you've never sung before |
|
Let it fill the air |
|
Tell the people everywhere |
|
We, the people here, don't want a war |
|
Hey there, Mister Black Man can you hear me? |
|
I don't want your diamonds or your game |
|
I do want to be someone known to you as me |
|
and I will bet my life you want the same |
|
Come and sing a simple song of freedom |
|
Sing it like you've never sung before |
|
Let it fill the air |
|
Tell the people everywhere |
|
We, the people here, don't want a war |
|
Seven hundred million are enlisted |
|
Most of what you read, most of what you read, is made of lies |
|
But speaking one to one, ain't it everybody's son |
|
To wake to in the morning when we rise? |
|
Come and sing a simple song of freedom |
|
Sing it like you've never sung, never sung, before |
|
Let it fill the air |
|
Tell the people everywhere |
|
We, the people here, don't want a war |
|
No doubt some folks enjoy doin' battle |
|
Like presidents, prime ministers and kings |
|
So let's all build them shelves so they can fight among themselves |
|
and leave us be those who want to sing |
|
Come and sing a simple song of freedom |
|
Sing it like you've never, ever, sung before |
|
Let it fill the air |
|
Tell the people everywhere |
|
We, the people here, don't want a war |
|
Come and sing a simple song of freedom |
|
Sing it like you've never, ever, sung before |
|
Speaking one to one |
|
Ain't it everybody's son |
|
To wake to in the morning when we rise |
|
Speaking one to one |
|
Ain't it everybody's son |
|
To wake to in the morning when we rise |
