You need love, people
Like they taught to you
We need what we need
And what we need is liberty, or we will have a revolution
We need what we need
And what we need to do is get together right now
Too much confusion
In all my life I never seen so many broken hearts
When did it start, no one will know, but we got to stop it fast
Listen to the radio, every day and every night
They're blaming this, they're blaming that
I know they couldn't be right, no no
We need what we need
And what we need to do is try to help our brother
In any way now
We need what we need
And what we need to do is try to work together
Now and forever
We got to get up, get up and get up
The devil should not be your friend, brothers
Get up, get up and get up
You get up and look into yourself, sisters
Get up, get up and get up
You get up and join hand in hand
Everybody get up, get up and get up
I know that you will understand
We need love
I said, we need love
People, yeah
In all my life I've never seen so many broken hearts
Where did it start, I like to know, but we got to stop it fast
Listen to the radio, every day and every night
They're blaming this, they're blaming that
I know they couldn't be right, no no
We need what we need
And what we need to do is try to help our brother
In any way now
We need what we need
And what we need to do is try to work together
Now and forever
We got to get up, get up and get up
The devil should not be your friend, brothers
Get up, get up and get up
Get up and look into yourself, sisters
Get up, get up and get up
Get up and join hand in hand
Everybody get up, get up and get up
I know that you will understand
Englishman, Asian
The devil should not be your friend
So won't you get up, get up and get up
Get up and join hand in hand
Jamaicans, Africans, Americans
Come on join your hand
Everybody get up, get up, get up
Get up and look into yourself
I say we need love
Everybody need love
Everybody get up
