| Oh, don’t get confused
|
| Not everyone is out to play a trick on you
|
| Although there are some who cheat and deceive
|
| Hold close to you a love in which you truly believe
|
| (Hey sister)
|
| Oh, trust in your man
|
| Love him every day, and love the best that you can
|
| And if the love in your heart, it seems to be true
|
| Don’t run away with someone new
|
| Do unto others, do unto others
|
| As you let them do right back to you
|
| (Hey brother)
|
| Oh, you know that it’s true
|
| When someone’s down, you pick him up and help him get through
|
| And when the time comes, and you are in need
|
| They’ll be there, like they ought to be
|
| (Hey sister)
|
| Oh, you’ve got to be strong
|
| You’ll find some men who feel it’s right to treat you wrong
|
| And lie to your face and try what they can
|
| Don’t be fooled, just make your stand
|
| Do unto others, do unto others
|
| As you let them do right back to you
|
| (Hey people)
|
| Oh, the battle’s not won
|
| You never learn your lesson, ‘til the moment has gone
|
| If you sit down, and be still, and don’t even try
|
| Life will surely pass you by
|
| (Hey people) |
