Everyone is crying out for peace
None is crying out for justice
I said, "if the one is crying out for peace"
I said, "none is crying out for justice"
But there will be no peace
'Till men get equal rights
Equal rights and justice
Equal rights
Equal rights and justice
Equal rights
Equal rights and justice
Equal rights
Equal rights and justice
Everybody want to go up to heaven
I say, "hell, nobody want to die" (and visits the Jesus)
Everybody want to go up to heaven
I say, "hey, but none of them want to die"
I don't know why
But ain't gonna be no peace
'Till men get the equal rights
Equal rights and justice
Equal rights
Equal rights and justice
We need equal rights
Equal rights and justice
Equal rights, equal rights and justice
