Lyrics

Look, oh Lord, they brought us down here
Have us in bondage right through these years
Fussing an' fighting among ourselves
Nothing to achieve this way, it's worser than hell (I say)
Get up and fight for your right, my brother
Get up and fight for your right, my sister
Took us away from civilization
Brought us to slave in this big plantation
Fussing an' fighting among ourselves
Nothing to achieve this way, it's worser than hell (I say)
Get up and fight for your right, my brother
Get up and fight for your right, my sister
Took us away from civilization
Brought us to slave in this big plantation
Fussing an' fighting among ourselves
Nothing to achieve this way, it's worser than hell (I say)
Get up and fight for your right, my brother
Get up and fight for your right, my sister
Get up and fight for your right, my brother
Get up and fight for your right, my sister
Get up and fight for your right, my brother (Woah, my brother)
Get up and fight for your right, my sister
