[Verse 1: Diana Ross]
Anyone who's had the pleasure
Of meeting you in this lifetime
Would recognise the strength in you
The sense in you
And the wisdom like sun shining through

[Chorus: Diana Ross]
Pops, we love you, love you
Yes, we do
Pops, Pops, we love you, love you
Yes, yes, we do, yeah

[Verse 2: Marvin Gaye]
Oh anyone, young and old alike
Would feel free to ask your advice
And you'd know, you'd understand
And you'd give a helping hand
All your life you fought
For what's right, what's right

[Chorus: Diana Ross and Marvin Gaye]
Pops, Pops, we love you, love you
Oh yes, we do
Pops, we love you, love you
Yеs, we do
[Verse 3: Smokеy Robinson and (Diana Ross))
You always say
First love the Lord
And then it's easy to love
Thy neighbour (Sing it, Smokey)
And from what we've heard
You've always been a man of your word, ooh

[Chorus: Diana Ross and Smokey Robinson]
Pops, we love you, love you
Yes, we do

[Verse 4: Stevie Wonder]
Like the roots of the strongest tree
You give strength to your friends and family
And anyone who's had the luck to meet you
When they're down, you can pick them right up

[Chorus: All]
Pops, we love you, love you
Yes, we do
Pops, we love you, love you
Everybody loves ya
Yes, we do

[Verse 5: Stevie Wonder]
Getting older, ha
And you're still going strong
Right on, right on, right on
You're so good, you're so kind
You're so real, you're so fine
[Chorus: All]
Pops, we love you, love you
Yes, we do
Pops, we love you, love you (You're a wonderful man)
Everybody loves ya
Yes, we do

We love you
All the little children love you
You've been wonderful
Pops, we love you

[Outro: Stevie Wonder]
Pops, your name should have been love
That's what you stand for in our lives
