Well I must confess hey the world's a mess We got suits and ties that are filled with lies Can't see the world through their own two eyes But life is grand when the money's in your hand Well you can take it with a grain of sand or a grain of salt But don't you get caught with the happiness you bought And I said don't matter where you come from We all live under the same sun Don't matter if you're rich or poor Pay no mind to who got less or more It's up and down black and white Wrong or right, no in between so do the right thing Now don't get me wrong the rich folk ain't alone It ain't all on them so don't condemn Before you look at yourself down deep within You gotta pull your own weight come on don't be late
Don't want to miss the bus be oblivious or anonymous To the rest of the populous And I said don't matter where you come from We all live under the same sun Don't matter if you're rich or poor Pay no mind to who got less or more It's up and down black and white Wrong or right no in between so do the right thing Go ahead and reach out your hand Pick up your brother Do everything that you can To love one another It don't matter where you come from We all live under the same sun Don't matter if you're rich or poor Pay no mind to who's got less or more It's up and down black and white Wrong or right no in between so do the right thing Oh so do the right thing
