What`s Going On Lyrics

(by Marvin Gaye)



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 - Ya 



Father, father 

We don't need to escalate 

You see, war is not the answer 

For only love can conquer hate 

You know we've got to find a way 

To bring some lovin' here today 



Picket lines and picket signs 

Don't punish me with brutality 

Talk to me, so you can see 

Oh, what's going on 

What's going on 

Ya, what's going on 

Ah, what's going on 



In the mean time 

Right on, baby 

Right on 

Right on 



Father, father, everybody thinks we're wrong 

Oh, but who are they to judge us 

Simply because our hair is long 

Oh, you know we've got to find a way 

To bring some understanding here today 

Oh 



Picket lines and picket signs 

Don't punish me with brutality 

Talk to me 

So you can see 

What's going on 

Ya, what's going on 

Tell me what's going on 

I'll tell you what's going on - Uh 

Right on baby 

Right on baby
