People Got to Be Free

Lyrics

[Chorus] All the world over, so easy to see People everywhere just wanna be free Listen, please listen, that's the way it should be Peace in the valley, people got to be free (Ah-ah, yeah, ah-ah, yeah) [Verse 1] You should see, what a lovely, lovely world this'd be Everyone learns to live together Seems to me such an easy, easy thing should be Why can't you and me learn to love one another? No, have you now? [Chorus] 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 (Ah-ah, yeah, ah-ah, yeah) [Verse 2] If there's a man who is down and needs a helping hand All it takes is you to understand and to pull him through It seems to me we got to solve it individually And I'll do unto you what you do to me Said no, oh, oh [Chorus] There'll be shoutin' from the mountains on out to sea No two ways about it, people have to be free Ask me my opinion, my opinion will be It's a natural situation for a man to be free (Ah-ah, yeah, ah-ah, yeah) Get right on board, now! [Instrumental Bridge] [Chorus] Oh, what a feelin's just come over me Enough to move a mountain, make a blind man see Everybody's dancin', come on, let's go see Peace in the valley, now they want to be free [Outro] Look, you see that train over there? Now, that's the train of freedom It's about to ride any minute, now You know it's been long, long overdue Look out 'cause it's comin' right on through
