Lyrics Get the Word Started - Michael McDonald

Get the Word Started

When the morning breaks
With the rising sun
Our past mistakes
Are gonna be undone
'Cause no other love
Could have opened my eyes
To the simple joy of just being alive
'Cause in this world it still takes love
(Get the word started)
Talkin' 'bout change, just ain’t enough
(Get the word started)
We gotta show what we’re made of
(Get the word started)
These times are gonna get rough
(Get the word started)
Right now, right now, right now, right now, baby
(Everybody)
Everybody
When shadows fall
Our love will shine
On all the good things
Baby that are left to find
If we don’t believe
That we have half a chance
Then all hopes and dreams
Are gonna slip through our hands
'Cause in this world it still takes love
(Get the word started)
Talkin' 'bout change just ain’t enough
(Get the word started)
We gotta show what we’re made of
(Get the word started)
These times are gonna get rough
(Get the word started)
Right now, right now, everybody
Right now, right now, baby
'Cause in this world it still takes love
(Get the word started)
Talkin' 'bout change, just ain’t enough
(Get the word started)
We gotta show what we’re made of
(Get the word started)
These times are gonna get rough
(Get the word started)
Right now, right now
(Everybody, everybody)
Baby, right now, right now, baby
(Everybody)
'Cause in this world it still takes love
(Get the word started)
Talkin' 'bout change, just ain’t enough
(Get the word started)
We gotta show what we’re made of
(Get the word started)
These times are gonna get rough
(Get the word started)
Right now, right now, baby
(Everybody, everybody)
Right now, right now, baby
(Everybody, everybody)
Right now, baby
(Everybody, everybody)
Baby, baby
(Everybody, everybody)
Baby, get the word started
(Everybody, everybody)
Right now, right now
