There's some people up there hoggin' everything |
|
Tellin' lies, givin' alibis about the people's money and things |
|
And if they gonna throw it away, might as well give some to me |
|
Yeah they seen and heard it, but never had misery |
|
There are some people who are starvin' to death |
|
Never knew but only hate us, and they never had happiness |
|
Oh, oh, oh, if you don't have enough to eat, how can you think of love |
|
You don't have the time to care so it's crime you're guilty of, oh yeah |
|
For God's sake, you got to give more power to the people |
|
For God's sake, why don't you give more power to the people |
|
Cut this jive and see who's got the power to kill the most |
|
When they run out of power, the world's gonna be a ghost |
|
They know we're not satisfied, so we begin to holler |
|
Makin' us a promise and throwin' a few more dollars |
|
There's no price for happiness, there's no price for love |
|
Up goes the price of livin', and you're right back where you was |
|
So whatever you got, just be glad you got it |
|
Now we're gonna get on up and get some more of it |
