People Got to Be Free Songtext
von The Rascals

All the world over, so easy to see
People everywhere just wanna be free
Listen, please listen, that′s the way it should be
Peace in the valley, people got to be free
(Ah-ah, yeah, ah-ah, yeah)

You should see what a lovely, lovely world this'd be
Everyone learns to live together
Seems to me such an easy, easy thing should be
Why can′t you and me learn to love one another?
No, have you now?

All the world over, so easy to see
People everywhere just wanna be free (wanna be free)
I can't understand it, so simple to me (it is)
People everywhere just got to be free
(Ah-ah, yeah, ah-ah, yeah)


If there's a man who is down and needs a helping hand
All it takes is you to understand and to pull him through
Seems to me we got to solve it individually
And I′ll do unto you what you do to me
Said no, oh, oh

There′ll be shoutin' from the mountains on out to sea (out to sea)
No two ways about it, people have to be free (they got to be free)
Ask me my opinion, my opinion will be (ah-ha)
It′s a natural situation for a man to be free
(Ah-ah, yeah, ah-ah, yeah) get right on board, now!

Oh, the feelings just come over me
It's enough to move a mountain, make a blind man see
Everybody′s dancin', come on, let′s go see
Peace in the valley, now they want to be free
Come on, yeah

Look, you see that train over there?
Now, that's the train of freedom
It's about to ride any minute, now
You know it′s been long, long overdue
Look out ′cause it's comin′ right on through
