Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
|
Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
|
Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
|
Get up, stand up: don't give up the fight!
|
|
Preacherman, don't tell me,
|
Heaven is under the earth.
|
I know you don't know
|
What life is really worth.
|
It's not all that glitters is gold;
|
'Alf the story has never been told:
|
So now you see the light, eh!
|
Stand up for your rights. Come on!
|
|
Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
|
Get up, stand up: don't give up the fight!
|
Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
|
Get up, stand up: don't give up the fight!
|
|
Most people think,
|
Great God will come from the skies,
|
Take away everything
|
And make everybody feel high.
|
But if you know what life is worth,
|
You will look for yours on earth:
|
And now you see the light,
|
You stand up for your rights. Jah!
|
|
Get up, stand up! (Jah, Jah!)
|
Stand up for your rights! (Oh-hoo!)
|
Get up, stand up! (Get up, stand up!)
|
Don't give up the fight! (Life is your right!)
|
Get up, stand up! (So we can't give up the fight!)
|
Stand up for your rights! (Lord, Lord!)
|
Get up, stand up! (Keep on struggling on!)
|
Don't give up the fight! (Yeah!)
|
|
We sick an' tired of-a your ism-skism game -
|
Dyin' 'n' goin' to heaven in-a Jesus' name, Lord.
|
We know when we understand:
|
Almighty God is a living man.
|
You can fool some people sometimes,
|
But you can't fool all the people all the time.
|
So now we see the light (What you gonna do?),
|
We gonna stand up for our rights! (Yeah, yeah, yeah!)
|
|
So you better:
|
Get up, stand up! (In the morning! Git it up!)
|
Stand up for your rights! (Stand up for our rights!)
|
Get up, stand up!
|
Don't give up the fight! (Don't give it up, don't give it up!)
|
Get up, stand up! (Get up, stand up!)
|
Stand up for your rights! (Get up, stand up!)
|
Get up, stand up! (...)
|
Don't give up the fight! (Get up, stand up!)
|
Get up, stand up! (...)
|
Stand up for your rights!
|
Get up, stand up!
|
Don't give up the fight! [fadeout]
