Come and sing a simple song of freedom
|
Sing it like you've never sung before
|
Let it fill the air
|
Tell the people everywhere
|
We, the people here, don't want a war
|
|
Hey there, Mister Black Man can you hear me?
|
I don't want your diamonds or your game
|
I just want to be, someone known to you as me
|
and I will bet my life you want the same
|
|
Come and sing a simple song of freedom
|
Sing it like you've never sung before
|
Let it fill the air
|
Tell the people everywhere
|
We, the people here, don't want a war
|
|
Seven hundred million are you listening?
|
Most of what you read is made of lies
|
But speaking one to one, ain't it everybody's sun
|
To wake to in the morning when we rise?
|
|
So come and sing a simple song of freedom
|
Sing it like you've never sung before
|
Let it fill the air
|
Tell the people everywhere
|
We, the people here, don't want a war
|
|
Brother Solzhenitsyn are you busy?
|
If not would you drop a friend a line?
|
Tell me if the man, who is plowing up your land
|
has got the war machine upon his mind
|
|
Come and sing a simple song of freedom
|
Sing it like you've never sung before
|
Let it fill the air
|
Tell the people everywhere
|
That we, the people here, don't want a war
|
|
Now no doubt some folks enjoy doin' battle
|
Like presidents, prime ministers and kings
|
So let's build them shelves where they can fight among themselves
|
and leave the people be who like to sing
|
|
Come and sing a simple song of freedom
|
Sing it like you've never sung before
|
Let it fill the air
|
Tell the people everywhere
|
That we the people here, don't want a war
|
|
Let it fill the air
|
Tell the people everywhere
|
That we the people here, don't want a war
|
|
Freedom!
|
Freedom!
|
Freedom!
|
