Lyrics
Love Thy Neighbor!!!
Mama, why they shoot them down?
Just because their skin is brown
Tell me why they curse them so? Everywhere these people go
Father, why they hang them high?
Say that they deserve to die
Tell me why they act so cruel?
Don’t they know the golden rule?
Do unto your brother man
As you would have them do to you
Heed to these words that command
Love thy neighbor through and through
Mama, why they cut them down?
Kick them when they’re on the ground
Tell me where’s the victory?
When you have to kill somebody
Do unto your brother man
As you would have them do to you
Heed to the words that command
To love thy neighbor through and through
Eye for eye, tooth for tooth
Has never worked before
Ancient minds in modern times
Always leads to war
Do unto your brother man
As you would have them do to you
Heed to the words that command
To love thy neighbor through and through
