Текст песни Clean up America - Candi Staton

The world today is in a bad situation
Too much talk and not enough communication
Hard times are spreading all over the land
We got to get it together
Fore it gets out of hand
We blame politicians for the world today
Just turn our heads hope it goes away
We view our problems through too many colours
Never stop to think that we're sisters and brothers

We gotta listen a little bit more
Talk a little bit less
Turn hate into love
And clean up our own mess oh
We got to pitch in and clean up America
We got to pitch in and clean up America
We got to pitch in and clean up America
Or it won't be America anymore

Clean up your own backyard
And I'll clean up mine
We're too busy fussing and fighting
All the time
We got to have a change of heart
Starting with ourselves
It's too hard to solve your own problems
Worrying about somebody else

We gotta listen a little bit more
Talk a little bit less
Turn hate into love
And clean up our own mess oh
We got to pitch in and clean up America
We got to pitch in and clean up America
We got to pitch in and clean up America
Or it won't be America anymore

Got to pitch in clean up America
We got to pitch in now
Let's clean up America
Everybody come on
Everybody come on
And join hands
Let's clean it up
Let's clean it up
Oh, yeah come on now
Clean up America yeah.
