[Chorus] 'Said you better let my Let my people go 'Said you better let my Let my people go [Verse 1] I'm talkin' 'bout the babies starvin' to d**h I'm talkin' 'bout the children that can't help themselves I'm talkin' 'bout the people that got nothin' to keep I'm talkin' 'bout the people that don't have the freedom of speech [Chorus] [Verse 2] Man to your rocket ship Take you to the moon A million dollar mission Just to bring back a piece of rock We got starvation, panic across the land And here's a fool in a rocket ship Tryina' be superman [Chorus] [Backup singers] (Humming) Let him go Let him go Let him go Let him go (Humming) [Verse 3] Give us a little island An island in the sea Give us a sea coming in It's two so we can work the man We don't need your money Keep your anger and grief We just want us a happy place Where black men and white men can live in piece [Chorus]
