[Intro]
Hoo...
One, two, three, four
[Verse 1]
Mother, mother
There's too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother, woo-hoo
There's far too many of you dying
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today, oh oh oh
[Verse 2]
Father, father
We don't need to escalate
War is not the answer
For only love can conquer hate
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some understanding here today, oh oh oh
[Chorus]
Picket lines (Sister), picket signs (Sister)
Don't punish me (Sister) with brutality (Sister)
Talk to me (Sister), so you can see (Sister)
What's going on (What's going on)
Oh, what's going on (What's going on)
Yeah, what's going on (What's going on)
Tell me please, what's going on (What's going on)

[Verse 3]
Mother, mother, everybody thinks we're wrong, ah yeah
Ah, 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
[Chorus]
Picket lines (Brother), picket signs (Brother)
Don't punish me (Brother) with brutality (Brother)
Come on, talk to, talk to me (Brother)
So you can see (Brother)
What's going on (What's going on)
Ah, what's going on (What's going on)
Tell me what's going on (What's going on)
I'll tell you what's going on (What's going on)
