Lyrics

(Toussaint) We may seem happy like everything's alright But from the outside looking in Everything's uptight But deep down inside we're covering up the pain It's an old thing It's a soul thing But it's a real thing Pray tell what's gonna happen to brother Who's gonna help him get further One another One another There's old dude standing on the corner Waiting for a fox to pass The only thing he's got to go by Is this is where he saw her last And there's old John, two dollars in his pocket Talking loud and thinks he's rich And look for little fool, too cool to go to school Get a job, in two days he quits Pray tell what's gonna happen to brother Who's gonna help him get further One another Is that the truth? One another Yeah, you're right Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Pray tell what's gonna happen to brother Who's gonna help him get further One another One another Mama get up early, early in the morning Papa's already gone Going out a-working for half of what he's worth now You know that it's wrong What happen to the Liberty Bell I heard so much about? Did it really ding-dong? It must have dinged wrong It didn't ding long Pray tell what's gonna happen to brother Who's gonna help him get further One another Is that the truth? One another Yeah, you're right Mama get up early, early in the morning Papa's already gone Working two jobs for half of what he's worth now You know that it's wrong What happen to the Liberty Bell I heard so much about? Did it really ding-dong? It must have dinged wrong It didn't ding long Pray tell what's gonna happen to brother Who's gonna help him get further One another Is that the truth? One another Yeah, you're right Pray tell what's gonna happen to brother Who's gonna help him get further One another Is that the truth? One another Yeah, you're right Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah Did it really ding-dong? It didn't ding long Did it really ding-dong? It didn't ding long
