Get Up, Stand Up

Get Up, Stand Up, stand up for your right (3 times)

Get Up, Stand Up, don't give up the fight

Preacher man don't tell me heaven is under the earth

I know you don't know what life is really worth

Is not all that glitters in gold and

Half the story has never been told

So now you see the light, aay

Stand up for your right. Come on

Get Up, Stand Up, stand up for your right

Get Up, Stand Up, don't give up the fight

(Repeat)

Most people think great God will come from the sky

Take away ev'rything, and make ev'rybody feel high

But if you know what life is worth

You would look for yours on earth

And now you see the light

You stand up for your right, yeah!

Get Up, Stand Up, stand up for your right

Get Up, Stand Up, don't give up the fight

Get Up, Stand Up. Life is your right

So we can't give up the fight

Stand up for your right, Lord, Lord

Get Up, Stand Up. Keep on struggling on

Don't give up the fight

We're sick and tired of your ism and skism game

Die and go to heaven in 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

We gonna stand up for our right

So you'd better get up, stand up, stand up for your right

Get Up, Stand Up, don't give up the fight

Get Up, Stand Up, stand up for your right

Get Up, Stand Up, don't give up the fight.
