Everyday People (Summer of Soul Soundtrack - Live at the 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival)

Lyrics

[Chorus] I am everyday people, yeah I am everyday people, yeah [Verse 1] Sometimes I'm right and I can be wrong My own beliefs are in my song The butcher, the banker, the drummer, and then Makes no difference what group I'm in [Chorus] I am everyday people, yeah, yeah [Verse 2] There is a blue one that can't accept the green one For living with a fat one, trying to be a skinny one Different strokes for different folks And so on and so on and scooby-dooby-doo-bee [Refrain] Ooh, sha, sha We got to live together [Verse 3] I am no better and neither are you We are the same whatever we do You love me, you hate me, you know me, and then You can't figure out the bag I'm in [Chorus] I am everyday people, yeah, yeah [Verse 4] There is a long hair that doesn't like the short hair For being such a rich one, that will not help the poor one And different strokes for different folks And so on and so on and scooby-dooby-doo-bee [Refrain] Ooh, sha, sha Live together [Verse 5] There is a yellow one that can't accept the black one That won't accept the red one, that won't accept the white one And different strokes for different folks And so on and so on and scooby-dooby-doo-bee [Chorus] Ooh, sha, sha I am everyday people, yeah, yeah, yeah I am everyday people, yeah, yeah I am everyday people, yeah
