The Staple Singers – We The People lyrics
We the people, hear now
Got to make the world go 'round
Got to make the world now

We the people, yeah
Got to make the world go 'round
Got to make the world now

You may have the black blood
Or you may have the white blood
But we all are living on blood, so
Don't let nobody slip into the mud, 'cause uh

We the people, you tell them
Got to make the world go 'round
Got to make the world now

We the people, well
Got to make the world go 'round
Got to make the world now

Earnin' the knack
Vast regret
Everybody sweatin'
What you give is what you get
Hot pants in style, don't let our world go wild
Mama's youngest child is learning fast

Got to get up as soon as you get down
Don't get nothing from, uh, messing around

We the people, hey y'all
Got to make the world go 'round
Got to make the world now

We the people
Got to make the world go 'round
Got to make the world now

Oh, we the people, remember y'all
Got to make the world go 'round
Got to make the world now

We the people
Got to make the world go 'round
Got to make the world now

Earnin' the knack
Vast regret
Everybody sweatin'
What you give is what you get
Hot pants in style, don't let our world go wild
Mama's youngest child is learning fast

We the people, remember y'all
Got to make the world go 'round
Got to make the world now

We the people (You and me now, alright, yeah)
Got to make the world go 'round
Got to make the world now (I tell ya)

We the people, hear now (tell 'em all, tell 'em all, tell 'em all, yeah)
Got to make the world go 'round
Got to make the world now

We the people, well
Got to make the world go 'round
Got to make the world now

Let me see the people (every single man, every which way)
Got to make the world go 'round (can't nobody get away)
Got to make the world now (it's a game we got to play, you see, ah)

We the people, we got to do it now
Got to make the world go 'round
Got to make the world now

Oh, we the people, yeah
Got to make the world go 'round
Got to make the world now

We the people, (we the people, yeah)
Got to make the world go 'round
Got to make the world now

We the people
