| 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 |
