Lyrics

Hey what's happenin'?
Brother what's up?
Hey how you doin'? (this is a big party man)
Yeah brother like summer, right on (I dig it)
Hey man what's your name (my man)
Everything is everything (we gonna get down today boy)

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, yeah

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 lovin' here today

Picket lines and picket signs (sister, sister)
Don't punish me with brutality (sister, sister)
Talk to me (sister)
So you can see (sister)
Oh, what's going on (what's going on)
What's going on (what's going on)
What's going on (what's going on)
What's going on (what's going on)

Right on, baby
Right on
Right on baby

Mother, mother
Everybody thinks we're wrong
Oh, but who are they to judge us?
Simply because our hair is long
Oh, you know we've got to find a way
Bring some understanding here today

Picket lines and picket signs (brother, brother)
Don't punish me with brutality (brother, brother)
Come on talk to me (brother)
You can see (brother)
What's going on (what's going on)
Yeah, what's going on (what's going on)
Tell me what's going on (what's going on)
I'll tell you ya, what's going on (what's going on)
Right on, baby, right on
Right on, baby

Right on, baby, c'mon, right on
