[Intro]
Last night I was so depressed that I went and got the Bible
And I turned to the book of Revelations
And if people would just get and read the Bible
And read the book of Revelations, they would really turn around
And straighten up
This is all we need to do is just get the good book
And read it, put it to everyday life
[Intro]
Sisters
****
Whities
Jews
Crackers
Don't worry
If there's Hell below
We're all gonna go
[Verse 1]
Sisters
Brothers and the whities
Blacks and the crackers
Police and their backers
They're all political actors
[Verse 2]
Hurry
People running from their worries
While the judge and his juries
Dictate the law that's partly flawed
[Verse 3]
Cat calling
Love balling, fussing and a-cussing
Top billing now is killing
For peace, no one is willing
Kind of make you get that feeling
[Verse 4]
Everybody smoke
Use the pill and the dope
Educated fools
From uneducated schools
Pimping people is the rule
Polluted water in the pool
And Nixon talking 'bout don't worry
He say don't worry
He say don't worry
He say don't worry
[Chorus]
But they don't know
There can be no show
And if there's Hell below
We're all gonna go
[Verse 5]
Everybody praying
And everybody's saying
But when come time to do
Everybody's laying
Just talking about don't worry
They say don't worry
They say don't worry
They say don't worry
[Verse 6]
Sisters
Brothers and the whities
Blacks and the crackers
Police and their backers
They're all political actors
[Verse 7]
Smoke
The pill and the dope
Educated fools
From uneducated schools
Pimping people is the rule
Polluted water in the pool
[Verse 8]
And everybody's saying don't worry
They say don't worry
They say don't worry
They say don't worry
[Chorus]
But they don't know
There can be no show
And if there's Hell below
We're all gonna go
[Verse 9]
Lord, what we gonna do?
[Verse 10]
Tell me what we gonna do
If everything I say is true?
This ain't no way it ought to be
If only all the mass could see
[Verse 11]
But they keep talkin' 'bout don't worry
They say don't worry
They say don't worry
They say don't worry
