People Got to Be Free Lyrics

All the world over, so easy to see
People everywhere just wanna be free
Listen, people listen, that's the way it should be
Deep in the valley, people got to be free
You should see, what a lovely, lovely world this could
be
If everyone learned out to live together
But it seems to me such an easy, easy thing this should
be
Why can't you and me learn to love one another

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

If there's a man who is down and needs a helping hand
All it takes is you to understand and to see him
through.
Well it seems to me, we got to solve it individually
And I'll do unto you what you do to me
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
'Natural situation for a man to be free

Oh, what a feelin's just come over me
Love can move a mountain, make a blind man see
Everybody's singin', now let's go see
Deep in the valley, now they ought to be free

All the world over, so easy to see
People everywhere just wanna be free
Listen, people listen, that's the way it should be
Deep in the valley, people got to be free
- - (Call/Response) - -
All the world over, so easy to see
(See that train over there)
People everywhere just wanna be free
(that's the train of freedom)
I can understand it, so simple to me
(It's about to arrive in a minute)
People everywhere, just got to be free
(You know it's long overdue)
- -

(Repeat and Fade)
All the world over, so easy to see
People everywhere just wanna be free
Listen, people listen, that's the way it should be
Deep in the valley, people got to be free
