Well I must confess hey the world's a mess

We got suits and ties that are filled with lies

Can't see the world through their own two eyes

But life is grand when the money's in your hand

Well you can take it with a grain of sand or a grain of salt

But don't you get caught with the happiness you bought



And I said don't matter where you come from

We all live under the same sun

Don't matter if you're rich or poor

Pay no mind to who got less or more

It's up and down black and white

Wrong or right, no in between so do the right thing



Now don't get me wrong the rich folk ain't alone

It ain't all on them so don't condemn

Before you look at yourself down deep within

You gotta pull your own weight come on don't be late

Don't want to miss the bus be oblivious or anonymous

To the rest of the populous



And I said don't matter where you come from

We all live under the same sun

Don't matter if you're rich or poor

Pay no mind to who got less or more

It's up and down black and white

Wrong or right no in between so do the right thing



Go ahead and reach out your hand

Pick up your brother

Do everything that you can

To love one another



It don't matter where you come from

We all live under the same sun

Don't matter if you're rich or poor

Pay no mind to who's got less or more

It's up and down black and white

Wrong or right no in between so do the right thing

Oh so do the right thing
