We can get to the treasure
At the bottom of the sea
We can get to the moon and back
And watch it on TV
But can we get to the people
Who are lost and deceived
Can we get to the point
That can we hear and not believe

Can we get to that
Can we get to that
Do we really know where it's at
Can we get to that
If we can, peace on earth
May become reality
And there might be a place in heaven
For you and me

We can get to church on Sunday
And sing about brotherly love
We can get down on our knees and pray
For guidance from above
But can we roll up our sleeves
And start that must be done
And can we face the bitter with the sweet
Until the battle's won
Can we get to that
Can we get to that
Do we really know where it's at
Can we get to that
If we can, peace on earth
May become reality
And there might be a place in heaven
For you and me

Is everybody happy
Do you like the world you see
Or is your brother somewhere crying
For love and charity

Can we get to that
Can we get to that
Oh, do we really know where it's at
Can we get to that
If we can, peace on earth
May become reality
And there might be a place in heaven
For you and me
