Black fella, white fella

It doesn't matter, what your colour

As long as you, a true fella

As long as you, a real fella

All the people, of different races

With different lives, in different places

It doesn't matter, what your name is

We got to have, lots of changes

We need more brothers, if we're to make it

We need more sisters, if we're to save it

Are you the one that's gonna stand up and be counted?

Are you the one who's gonna be there when we shout it?

Are you the one that's always ready with a helping hand?

Are you the one who understands these family plans?

Black fella, white fella

Yellow fella, any fella

It doesn't matter, what your colour

As long as you, a true fella

All the people, of different races

With different lives, in different places

It doesn't matter, which religions

It's all the same when the, ship is sinking

We need more brothers, if we're to make it

We need more sisters, if we're to save it

Are you the one that's gonna stand up and be counted?

Are you the one who's gonna be there when we shout it?

Are you the one that's always ready with a helping hand?

Are you the one who understands these family plans?

Oh, stand up, stand up and be counted

Oh, stand up, stand up and be counted

Are you the one that's gonna stand up and be counted?

Are you the one who's gonna be there when we shout it?

Are you the one that's always ready with a helping hand?

Are you the one who understands these family plans?

Oh, stand up, stand up and be counted

Oh, stand up, stand up and be counted
