[Verse 1:] |
|
If everybody were poor we would all be rich |
|
If everybody up on this Earth were poor we would all be rich |
|
If I had no work I would enjoy life |
|
I would put my family first |
|
I would spend some time with my baby |
|
I would love them more and more |
|
If I was poor I'd cut down trees to build my roof |
|
I'd hunt in the forest |
|
Get my fish from the ocean |
|
Yeah, and we would live like the king and the queen |
|
And we would have a little princess or prince |
|
We would never have felt more free |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
People, people will always be people to me |
|
Yeah, people, people will always be people to me |
|
Yeah, we do wrong, we do right |
|
Yeah, we do wrong and we do right |
|
Yeah, we do wrong and do right |
|
Cause people will always be people to me |
|
[Verse 2:] |
|
Here comes another Friday (Friday) |
|
I haven't had work in weeks |
|
I just wanna make a living (living) |
|
And I promise I wouldn't need the sleep |
|
If I could work everyday, work everyday, work everyday |
|
Oh no, work everyday, work everyday, work everyday |
|
I, I'd even work at night |
|
I'd never take a day off rest of my life |
|
I would send the kids to school, make sure they're alright |
|
And make sure they're better than I, better than |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Interlude] |
