What's Going On lyrics

Mother, mother There's to many of you crying Brother, brother, brother There's far too many of you dying You know we've got to find a way To bring some lovin' here today - Yah Father, father We don't need to escalate You see, war is not the answer For only love can conquer hate You know we've got to find a way To bring some lovin' here today Picket lines and picket signs Don't punish me with brutality Talk to me So you can see Oh, what's going on What's going Ya, what's going on Ah, what's going on (Background music and conversation) In the mean time Right on, baby Right on Right on Father, father, everybody thinks we're wrong Oh, but who are they to judge us Simply because our hair is long Oh, you know we've got to find a way To bring some understanding here today Oh Picket lines and picket signs Don't punish me with brutality Talk to me, So you can see Oh, what's going on What's going on I'll tell you Ya, what's going on - Uh Ah, what's going on Right on baby Right on baby
