Go Tell The People

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Go tell all the people getting low

That you just couldn't stay

With the man

What meant nothing but good to you,

You had to get away.

I was saying thing like if we really, really loved,

We could make it through the bitter and the sweet.

But your way is dealing with the latter,

Where my way is getting down, down, down,

Your day is filled with money maters,

My day is filled with sound,

Sound and more sound.

We can make it through the bitter and the sweet,

But to you, hope was defeat.

Repeat :

And your way is dealing with the latter,

While my way is getting down, down, down,

Your day is filled with money maters,

My day is all filled with sound,

Sound and more sound.

Yes i said it, and i'll say it again

If we really, really, really love,

We can make it to the bitter end.
