The Peace Song
Sometimes I can't help cryin'
People when I hear about the dying
Young men, women, children
for the violence they've chosen
We got to stop, yes, people we,
We go to stop, my god yes
Sisters and brothers, do you hear me?
We got to stop killing one another
Sometimes I can't help thinking
When I've been sittin' and drinkin'
While the powers of the world
are struggling
The children of the world are starving
Well, the prayers of peace are rising
The sons of war are dying
People, we got to stop
Yes we, we go to stop, my god yes
Sisters and brothers, do you hear me?
We got to stop killing one another
Sometimes I can't help wondering
What in the world is happening?
While the white man's power is ruling
Black man's power is threatening
Well the great man's power is sleeping
Yellow man's power is
growing and growing
People, we got to stop
Yes we, we go to stop, my god yes,
Sisters and brothers, do you hear me?
We got to stop killing one another
Learn to take care of each other
Learn to try to love one another
People, don't you think it's time?
People when I hear about the dying
Young men, women, children
for the violence they've chosen
We got to stop, yes, people we,
We go to stop, my god yes
Sisters and brothers, do you hear me?
We got to stop killing one another
Sometimes I can't help thinking
When I've been sittin' and drinkin'
While the powers of the world
are struggling
The children of the world are starving
Well, the prayers of peace are rising
The sons of war are dying
People, we got to stop
Yes we, we go to stop, my god yes
Sisters and brothers, do you hear me?
We got to stop killing one another
Sometimes I can't help wondering
What in the world is happening?
While the white man's power is ruling
Black man's power is threatening
Well the great man's power is sleeping
Yellow man's power is
growing and growing
People, we got to stop
Yes we, we go to stop, my god yes,
Sisters and brothers, do you hear me?
We got to stop killing one another
Learn to take care of each other
Learn to try to love one another
People, don't you think it's time?
