Get up, stand up
Stand up for your right
Get up, stand up
Don't give up the fight
Get up, stand up
Stand up for your right
Get up, stand up
Don't give up the fight
Preacherman don't tell me, heaven is under the earth
I know, you don't know, what life is really worth
If all that glitters was gold
Heard the story which never been told
Now you see the light
So get up for your rights
Get up stand up
Sit up for your right
Get up stand up
Don't give up the fight
Get up stand up
Stand up for your right
Get up stand up
Don't give up the fight
Well people say: a great God will come from the sky
Take away everything
And make everybody feel high
If you know what life is worth
You will look to yours on earth
And now you see the light
Stand up for your rights
Get up, stand up
Get up, stand up
Stand up for your right
Stand up for your right
Get up, stand up
Get up, stand up
Don't give up the fight
People don't people done
Get up, stand up
Stand up for your right (sit Up)
Get up, stand up
Don't give up the fight
I'm sick and tired of
The same of shame of thing
Die and go to heaven in Jesus' name
Cause we know and we understand
That a mighty God is a livin man
Be so clear for sometime
But you cannot fool all the people all the time
Now you see the light
So get up for your rights
Get up stand up
Get up stand up
Stand up for your rights
Stand up for your rights
Get up stand up
Get up stand up
Don't give up the fight
Don't give up the fight
Weeeooo
We won't give up the fight
Don't give up the fight
Weeeooo
We won't give up the fight
Don't give up the fight
