Lyrics If There's a Hell Below (single edit) - Curtis Mayfield

Sisters, brothers and the whities
Blacks and the crackers
Police and their backers
They're all political actors

Hurry, people running from their worries
While the judge and his juries
Dictate the law that's partly flaw
Cat calling, love balling, fussing and cussing

Top billing now is killing
For peace no one is willing
Kind of make you get that feeling

Everybody smoke
Use the pill and the dope
Educated fools
From uneducated schools

Pimping people is the rule
Polluted water in the pool

And Nixon talking about don't worry
He says don't worry
He says don't worry
He says don't worry

But they don't know there can be no show
And if there's a hell below we're all gonna go
Everybody's praying and everybody's saying
But when come time to do everybody's laying

Just talking about don't worry
They say don't worry
They say don't worry
They say don't worry

Sisters, brothers and the whitie
Blacks and the crackers
Stone stone junkie
Police and their backers
They're all political actors

Smoke, the pill and the dope
Educated fools from uneducated schools
Pimping people is the rule
Polluted water in the pool

And everybody's saying don't worry
They say don't worry
They say don't worry
They say don't worry

But they don't know
There can be no show
If there's a hell below
We're all gonna go

Lord what we gonna do
If everything I say is true
This ain't no way it ought to be
If only all the mass could see

But everybody keeps saying don't worry
