Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights

Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight

Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights

Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight

Preacher man, 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 glitter's is gold, half the story has never been told

And now you see the light, you stand up for your right

Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights

Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight

Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights

Get up, stand up, don't give up a fight

You see, most people think great God will come from the sky

Take away everything and make everybody feel high

But if you know what life is worth, you would look for yours on earth

Now you see the light, stand up for your right

Get up, stand up, stand up for your right

Get up, stand up, don't give up a fight

Get up, stand up, stand up for your right

Get up, stand up, don't give up a fight

Sick and tired of a the 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

And now you see the light, stand up for your right

Get up, stand up, stand up for your right

Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight, no

Get up, stand up, stand up for your right

Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight

Don't give up the fight, don't give up the fight

Don't give up the fight, don't give up the fight

Don't give up the fight, don't give up the fight

Don't give up the fight, don't give up the fight

Don't give up the fight, don't give up the fight

Don't give up the fight, don't give up a fight

I say now, don't give up the fight

So we won't give up the fight, so we won't give up the fight

So we won't give up the fight, so we won't give up the fight

So we won't give up the fight, so we won't give up the fight

So we won't give up the fight, so we won't give up the fight

I say now

So we won't give up the fight, so we won't give up the fight

So we won't give up the fight, so we won't give up the fight

You see, most people think great God will come from the sky

Take away everything, make everybody feel high

But if you know what life is worth, you would look for yours on earth

And now you see the light, stand up for your right

Stand up for your right, stand up for your right

Stand up for your right, stand up for your right

Stand up for your right, stand up for your right

Stand up for your right, stand up for your right

Stand up for your right, stand up for your right

Stand up for your right
