Stand Up Songtext
von Eric Donaldson

I know I can make it now
The dark clouds are all gone
A new day is dawning
And I have got to keep on moving

Why can′t you a-stand up
Stand up, stand up, stand up
Fight for your rights
Why can't you a-stand up
Stand up, stand up, stand up
Fight for your rights

You can′t judge a book by the cover
Just turn the pages and read
Don't try to make me over
Come, come satisfy all your needs


Why can't you a-stand up
Stand up, stand up, stand up
Fight for your rights
Why can′t you a-stand up
Stand up, stand up, stand up
Fight for your rights

Don′t you shed no tears for me
Don't you cry no more
Don′t you worry about me now
Everything is all right
Cos everything is all right
Everything is all right
Everything is just find with me

Don't you shed no tears for me
Don′t you cry no more
Don't you worry about me now
Everything is all right
I said everything is all right
Everything is all right
Everything is just find with me

Oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah,
Oh oh oh oh yeah


Everything is all right
Everything is all right
Everything is just fine with me
Everything is all right
Everything is all right
Everything is just fine with me
Everything is all right
Everything is all right
Everything is just fine with me
Everything is all right
Everything is all right
