Medley II - Live At The London Palladium/1976

Woo, thank you, y'all, beautiful

Rockets, moon shots

Spend it on, baby, the have-nots

Money, we make it

'Fore we see it, you take it

Oh, make me wanna holler

The way they do my life

Makes me wanna holler

The way they do my life

This ain't livin', this ain't livin'

No, no baby, this ain't livin'

No, no, no, oh

Crime is increasing

Trigger happy policing

Panic is spreading

God knows where we're heading, woo

Makes me wanna holler

Throw up both my hands

Oh, makes me wanna holler

Throw up both my hands

Hey baby, singing about the inner city blues, yeah

Oh darling, ow

Huh, baby, singing, singing about inner city blues, woo

Ladies and gentlemen, we want to sing for you now a few excerpts from our "What's Going On" album

We sincerely hope

That you hear a few that you love

Bless you, baby

Don't go and talk about my father

God is my friend (Jesus is my friend)

He made this world for us to live in, and gave us everything

And all He asks of us, oh, is we give each other love

Oh baby, don't go and talk about my father

God is my friend (Jesus is my friend)

When we call in Him for mercy

He'll be merciful, my friend

All He asks of us, is we give each other love, oh baby

Mother, mother

There's too many of you crying

Brother, brother, brother

There's far too many of you dying

You know we've got to find a way

Bring some lovin' here today

Father, father

We don't need to escalate

War is not the answer

For only love can conquer hate, baby

You know we've got to find a way

Bring some understandin' here today, good God

Picket lines (Sister), picket signs (Sister)

Don't punish me (Sister) with brutality (Sister)

Talk to me (Sister), so you can see (Sister)

What's going on (What's going on)

What's going on (What's going on)

What's going on (What's going on)

What's going on (What's going on)

I know, gonna give it away

You got to have the love, baby, to make it work, you know

But everything's gonna be cool

Wait, wait a minute, there's another thing I wanna...

I just want to ask a question

Who really cares?

To save a world in despair

Who really cares?

There'll come a time, when the world won't be singin'

Flowers won't grow, oh no, baby, bells won't be ringin'

Who really cares?

Who is willing to try, yes darling

To save a world that's destined to die?

When I look at the world, oh, it fills me with sorrow

Children today, are they gonna suffer, suffer tomorrow?

Oh, what a shame, such a bad way to live

Ah, who is to blame when we can't stop livin'?

Oh, live for life, live for life

But let live everybody

Live life for the children

For the children

Oh baby, please, everybody save the babies

Oh please, save the babies

If you want love, you've got to love

Save the children, oh, oh

Save all the beautiful babies

Save the babies

Oh, save the children

Oh, oh, love the children
