Bob Marley - Get Up, Stand Up Songtext

Get up, stand up - stand up for your rights
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
It's not all that glitters is gold
'Alf the story has never been told
So now you see the light
Stand up for your rights

Get up, stand up - stand up for your rights
Get up, stand up - don't give up the fight

Most people think
Great God will come from the skies
Take away everything
And make everybody feel high
But if you know what life is worth
You will look for yours on earth
And now you see the light
You stand up for your rights. Jah

Get up, stand up
Stand up for your rights
Get up, stand up
Don't give up the fight

We sick an' tired of-a your ism-skism game 
Dyin' 'n' goin' to heaven in-a Jesus' name, Lord
We know when we understand
Almighty God is a living man
You can fool some people sometimes
But you can't fool all the people all the time
So now we see the light
We gonna stand up for our rights

So you better
Get up, stand up
Stand up for your rights
Get up, stand up
Don't give up the fight
