Mother, mother
There`s too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother
There`s far too many of you dying
You know we`ve got to find a way
To bring some lovin` here today
Father, father
We don`t need to escalate
War is not the answer
For only love can conquer hate
You know we`ve got to find a way
To bring some understanding, yeah, today
Aw, picket lines, picket signs
Don`t punish me with brutality
Talk to me so you can see
Oh what`s going on
Tell me what`s goin` on
Mother, mother
Ev`ry body thinks we`re wrong
Baby who are they to judge us
`Cause our hair is long
You know we`ve got to find a way
To bring some understanding here today
Good God
