Текст песни What's Going On - Michael McDonald

Mother, mother
There's too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother
There's far too many of you dying
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today

Father, father
We don't need to escalate
Oh, war is not the answer
'Cause only love can conquer hate
You know, you know we've got to find a way
To bring some understandin' here today

Picket signs (sister) and picket lines (sister)
Don't punish me (sister) with brutality (sister)
C'mon talk to me (sister), you will see (sister)
Oh, what's going on? (What's going on?)
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?)

Father, father, everybody says we're wrong
Who are they to judge us
Simply 'cause our hair is long
You know, know we've got to find a way
Bring some understanding here today

Picket signs (brother) picket lines (brother)
Don't punish me (brother) with brutality (brother)
C'mon talk to me (brother), you will see (brother)
Oh, what's going on? (What's going on?)
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?)

What's going on?
What's going on?

What's going on?

What's going on?
Father, father
What's going on?

Mother, mother, mother
What's going on?
