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 lovin' here today
Father, father
We don't need to escalate
You see, war is not the answer
For only love can conquer hate
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some understanding here today
Picket lines, sister and picket signs, sister
Don't come to me, sister, with brutality, sister
First talk to me, sister then you will see, sister
Oh, what's going on, what's going on
What's going on, what's going on
Oh, what's going on, what's going on
Yeah, what's going on
Father, father, everybody thinks we're wrong
But who are they to judge us
Simply because our hair is long
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some understanding here today
We're picket lines, brother and we're picket signs, brother
Don't come to me, brother, with brutality, brother
First talk to me, brother and you will see, brother
Oh, what's going on, yeah, what's going on
What's going on, what's going on
Oh, what's going on, what's going on
I'll tell you what's going on
What's going on
What's going on
What's going on
What's going on, please tell me
