What's Going On

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

To bring some loving here today

Father, father

We don't need to escalate

War is not the answer

Only love will conquer hate

You know we've got to find a way

To bring some loving here today, oh

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 (Yeah)

What's going on, what's going on (Tell me)

Tell me, tell me (Tell me)

Tell me, tell me what's going on

Tell me, tell me

Tell me, tell me what's going on

B-b-baby

Set 'em all free

Ooh, ooh, baby

Yeah (Ooh)

Mother, mother

Everybody thinks we're wrong

But who are they to judge us

Simply 'cause our hair is long?

You know we've got to find a way (Got to find a way)

To bring some understanding here today, oh

Picket lines (Brother), picket signs (Brother)

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

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

What's going on (Tell me), what's going on

What's going on, what's going on

Tell me, tell me

Tell me, tell me (Tell me what's going on)

Tell me, tell me

Tell me, tell me (Tell me, yeah)

My people (What's going on)

My people (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah)

What's going on

What's going on

What's going on
