ben harper – get up, stand up (bob marley) lyrics
preacher man don’t tell me, heaven is under the earth,
i know you don’t know what life is really worth
its not all that glitter is gold,
i got story aint never been told
so now you see the light
you stand up for your rights
get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
get up, stand up: don’t give up the fight!
get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
get up, stand up: don’t give up the fight!
most people think, great god will come from the sky
take away everything and make everybody feel high
but if you know what life is worth
you will look for yours on earth
so now you see the light
you stand up for your rights
get up, stand up! (jah, jah!)
stand up for your rights! (oh-hoo!)
get up, stand up! (get up, stand up!)
don’t give up the fight! (life is your right!)
get up, stand up! (so we can’t give up the fight!)
stand up for your rights! (lord, lord!)
get up, stand up! (keep on struggling on!)
don’t give up the fight
we sick an’ tired of-a your -ism-skism game –
dyin’ ‘n’ goin’ to heaven in-a jesus’ name, lord.
we know when we understand:
almighty god is a living man.
you can fool some people sometimes,
but you can’t fool all the people all the time.
so now we see the light (what you gonna do?),
we gonna stand up for our rights! (yeah, yeah, yeah!)
oh, you better:
get up, stand up! (in the morning! git it up!)
stand up for your rights! (stand up for our rights!)
get up, stand up!
don’t give up the fight! (don’t give it up, don’t give get up, stand up! (get up, stand up!)
stand up for your rights! (get up, stand up!)
get up, stand up! ( … )
don’t give up the fight! (get up, stand up!)
get up, stand up! ( … )
stand up for your rights!
get up, stand up!
don’t give up the fight!
