We Need to Go Back Songtext

We Need to Go Back Songtext
Ain′t nobody got nothing good to say
And if it ain't a dirty game, nobody wants to play
Just shoot him up, bag him up, stick him up, get away
And I read in the newspaper, things are getting worse everyday
Oh, we need to go back (we need to, we need to go back)
Back to the songs we used to sing
We need to go back (we need to, we need to go back)
When we would share a little bit of everything
Oh, and if that don′t do it
Or pull us through it
And you don't know a better way
We need to pray
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Everybody's got a surprise in store for you
You ask ′em where they′re coming from
They'll tell you where they′re going to
Just trip the fool
Play it cool
Break the rules
You'll get by
And they swear
On the Bible, it′s the truth
When they know it's a lie
Oh-oh, we need to go back (we need to, we need to go back)
Back to the songs we used to sing
We need to go back (we need to, we need to go back)
When we share a little bit of everything
Oh, and if that don′t do it
Or pull us through it
And you don't know a better way
Maybe we need to pray
Maybe we need to pray (we need to go pray)
And if that don't do it (we need to go pray)
Or pull us through it (we need to pray)
And you don′t know a better way
Maybe we need to pray (maybe, maybe)
Maybe we need to pray (we need to go pray)
And if that don′t know, make it better way
(We need to go pray)
And if it ain't a dirty game, nobody wants to play
Just shoot him up, bag him up, stick him up, get away
And I read in the newspaper, things are getting worse everyday
Oh, we need to go back (we need to, we need to go back)
Back to the songs we used to sing
We need to go back (we need to, we need to go back)
When we would share a little bit of everything
Oh, and if that don′t do it
Or pull us through it
And you don't know a better way
We need to pray
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Everybody's got a surprise in store for you
You ask ′em where they′re coming from
They'll tell you where they′re going to
Just trip the fool
Play it cool
Break the rules
You'll get by
And they swear
On the Bible, it′s the truth
When they know it's a lie
Oh-oh, we need to go back (we need to, we need to go back)
Back to the songs we used to sing
We need to go back (we need to, we need to go back)
When we share a little bit of everything
Oh, and if that don′t do it
Or pull us through it
And you don't know a better way
Maybe we need to pray
Maybe we need to pray (we need to go pray)
And if that don't do it (we need to go pray)
Or pull us through it (we need to pray)
And you don′t know a better way
Maybe we need to pray (maybe, maybe)
Maybe we need to pray (we need to go pray)
And if that don′t know, make it better way
(We need to go pray)
