Get Up Stand Up

Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up, oh brotherman 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!

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

Half 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, oh brotherman don't give up the fight

Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up, I beg you 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

Get up, stand up (Oh brotherman)

Stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up, (Watch it my sister), don't give up the fight

Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up, I beg you don't give up the fight!

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

Get up, stand up, Get up, stand up

Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up, I beg don't give up the fight

Get up, stand up, (Oh my sisters), stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up, I beg you don't give up the fight!

Never give up the fight

I beg you never give up the fight

Never give up the fight

I beg you never give up the fight

Mama never give up yo fight

My man never give up yo fight (Oh ahh hey)

Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up, oh brotherman don't give up the fight

Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up, I beg you don't give up the fight!
