Curtis Mayfield - We Gotta Have Peace lyrics

You say we got have You say we got have You say we got have You say we got have You say we got have You say we got have You say we got have You say we got have You say we got have You say we got have You say we got have You say we got have You say we got have You say we got have You say we got have You say we got have You say we got have peace We got have peace To keep the world alive And war to cease We got to have joy True in our hearts With strength we can't destroy People hear us Through our voice the world knows There's no choice We're begging to save the children The little ones Who just don't understand Give them a chance To breed their young And help purify the land We got have We got have peace People hear us

Through our voice the world knows There's no choice And the people in the neighborhood Who would if they only could Meet and shake the other's hand Work together for the good of the land Give us all an equal chance It could be such a sweet romance And the soldiers who are dead and gone If only we could bring back one He'd say, "We got to have peace To keep the world alive And war to cease We got to have peace" Let the world know We got to have peace, peace We got to have peace Let the people say peace We got to have peace To keep the world alive And war to cease We got to have joy True in our hearts With strength we can't destroy We got to have peace I said, peace, peace, peace Look (Incomprehensible) We got to have peace
