Get Up Stand Up

Lyrics

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
 You preacher man, don't tell me
 Heaven is under the earth
 You a duppy and you don't know
 What life is really worth
 It's not all that glitter is gold
 And half the story has never been told
 So now we see the light
 We gonna stand up for our rights, come on
 Get up, stand up (brothers)
 Stand up for your rights (come on)
 Get up, stand up (sisters)
 Don't give up the fight (I'm begging you to)
 Get up, stand up
 Stand up for your rights
 Get up, stand up (I said)
 Don't give up the fight
 'Cause you know most people think
 A great God will come from the skies
 And take away every little thing
 And left everybody dry
 But if you know what life is worth
 You would look for yours right here on Earth
 And now we see the light
 We gonna stand up for our rights, come on
 Get up, stand up (don't make them push you 'round)
 Stand up for your rights (come on brothers)
 Get up, stand up (be brave now)
 Don't give up the fight (I say)
 Get up, stand up
 Just stand up for your rights (don't let 'em hold you down)
 Get up, stand up
 Don't give up the fight
 We're sick and tired of this game of technology
 Humbly asking Jesus for his mercy
 We know, we know and we understand
 Almighty Jah is a living man
 You fool some people sometimes
 But you can't fool all the people all the time
 And now we see the light
 We gonna stand up for our rights, come on
 Get up, stand up
 Stand up for your rights (come on brothers)
 Get up, stand up (I said)
 Don't give up the fight (don't let 'em push you 'round)
 (I say) Get up, stand up
 Stand up for your rights (come on all sisters)
 Get up, stand up
