People Got To Be Free

(album: Peace... Back By Popular Demand - 2004)

All the world over, so easy to see
People everywhere just wanna be free
Listen, people listen, that's the way it should be
Deep in the valley, people got to be free

You should see what a lovely, lovely world this could be
If everyone learned how to live together
Well, it seems to me such an easy, easy thing should be
Why can't you and me learn to love one another

All the world over, so easy to see
People everywhere just wanna be free
I can't understand it, so simple to me
People everywhere just got to be free

If there's a man who is down and needs a helping hand
All it takes is you to understand and to pull him all through
Well, it seems to me, we got to solve it individually
I'll do unto you what you do unto me, oh yeah

So let's shout it from the mountain on out to the sea
No two ways about it, people have to be free
Ask me my opinion, my opinion will be
Natural situation for a man to be free, for man to be free

Oh, what a feeling just come over me
Love can move a mountain, make a blind man see
Everybody's singing, now, let's go see
Deep in the valley, now, we ought to be free

All the world over, so easy to see
People everywhere just wanna be free
Listen, people listen, that's the way it should be
Deep in the valley, people got to be free

All the world over, so easy to see
People everywhere just wanna be free
I can't understand it, so simple to me
People everywhere just got to be free

All the world over, so easy to see
People everywhere just wanna be free
Listen, people listen, that's the way it should be
Deep in the valley, people got to be free

Got to be, got to be, got to, got to be
All the world over, so easy to see
