Lou Rawls - For What It's Worth lyrics

There's something happening here And what it is ain't exactly clear There's a man with a gun over there Telling me I've got to beware Think it's time we stop children, what's that sound Everybody look what's goin' down There's battle lines being drawn And nobody's right, if everybody's wrong Young people speaking their minds A-getting so much resistance from behind And we stop, what's that sound Everybody look what's goin' down What a field day for the heat A thousand people in the street Singin' songs and a-carryin' signs Mostly say "hooray for our side" It's time to stop, hey what's that sound Everybody look what's goin' down Paranoia strikes deep Into your life it will creep It starts when you're always afraid Step outta line, the men come and take you away You betta stop, hey what's that sound Everybody look what's goin' now Stop, hey what's that sound Everybody look what's goin' now You betta stop, now, what's that sound Everybody look what's goin' now Stop, children
