Yeah, yeah, yeah
Mother, mother
There's too 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, ay
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, hey
Picket lines and picket signs
Don't punish me with brutality, c'mon
Talk to me, so you can see
Yeah, what's going, what's going on
What's going on, what's going on, hey-yeah

Mother, mother, everybody thinks we're wrong
Hey, who are they to judge us
Simply because our hair is long?
Whoa, you know we've got to find a way
To bring some understanding here today, ay
Picket lines and picket signs
Don't punish me with brutality
Say c'mon, talk to me
So you can see
Hey, what's going on (what's going on)
