Doobie Brothers People Gotta Love Again Lyrics

People Gotta Love Again Lyrics

Tom Johnston 

Windecor Music (BMI) 



Wake up everybody 

Take a good look around 

There's far too many reasons 

For all the troubles goin' down. 

Jesus is watchin', 

And the devil is alive. 

Buddha is cryin', 

And Allah is mystified. 

Brothers killin' brothers, 

And our children in the streets. 

We gotta change the times 

We gotta change the times. 



The world is watchin', look at the shape we're in. 

There ain't no doubt about it, people gotta love again. 



Down on every corner 

We got children sellin' dope. 

Who's gonna send a message 

And try to give 'em hope. 

Jesus is watchin', 

And the devil is alive. 

Buddha is cryin', 

And Allah is mystified. 

Brothers killin' brothers, 

And our children in the streets. 

We gotta change the times 

We gotta change the times. 



The world is watchin', look at the shape we're in. 

There ain't no doubt about it, people gotta love again. 

Oh what a shame when they try to pretend. 

All my brothers and sisters, people gotta love again. 



Can't buy love with a paycheck, 

It means nothin' to a boy and girl. 

You need universal love of all mankind 

To change what's wrong with the world. 



The world is watchin', look at the shape we're in. 

There ain't no doubt about it, people gotta love again. 

Oh what a shame when they try to pretend. 

All my brothers and sisters, people gotta love again.
