[Intro]
Alright
Wanna say first that it's so nice
To see so many of you young people here today
See that bright look of life on your face
Where people know if they could just see what I see here right now
They'd know there's a way and a lot of hope for a whole lot of us
Now
I'm sure there are a lot of you who, who believe that there's a way
To save this world
Is that right? Amen? (That's right)
We don't have to be running around hating each other
Calling each other names
And acting like fools like they do in the Whitе House
In Washington, right?
We don't want no wars, right?
We want a littlе love and peace in this world
We're sick of wars
Some of us have wars at home every day
We don't need that! (No, forget about that)
That's right, that's right, you get 'em brother, that's right
C'mon, let me here a little hum behind me
Let me hear some, come on
Some beautiful young voices here
I heard a song the other day
That kind of tells you exactly what I have on my mind
I'm gonna try to teach it to you
I don't know it too well myself, but
We'll see what happens, okay?
It's called "Comment"
It talks about all men loving each other

[Chorus]
If all men are truly brothers
Why can't we love one another?
Love and peace from ocean to ocean
Somebody please second my motion
If all men, if they're born to be free
What about you and what about me?
The world is filled with hate
And there's nothing left
You'll enslave me
And you'll never, you'll never, ain't that right?
You'll never, you'll never rescue yourself

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, c'mon young people, sing with me
Show 'em, let's tell 'em all, them old fuddy-duddies

[Chorus]
If all men are truly brothers
Why can't we love one another?
Love and peace from ocean to ocean (C'mon brothers)
Somebody please second my motion
If all men were born to be free then
What about you and what about me then?
The world is filled with hate
And there's nothing left
You'll enslave me
And you'll never rescue yourself

[Post-Chorus]
One more time
Come on, brother Billy, sing with me
Bring 'em on out
Oh

[Chorus]
If all men are truly brothers
Why can't we love one another?
Love and peace from ocean to ocean
Somebody please second my motion
If all men were born to be free then
What about you and what about me then?
The world is filled with hate
And there's nothing left

[Post-Chorus]
I believe there's a whole lot left
'Cause I can see it right out there right now
Just looking at all of you, amen?
Amen, amen
I think we ought to sing it for 'em just one more time
And for everybody out there listening to us, join in with us

[Chorus]
If all men are truly brothers
Why can't we love one another?
Love and peace from ocean to ocean
Somebody please second my motion
If all men were born to be free then
What about you and what about me then?
