Coversong written and made famous by Bob Marley and Peter Tosh<\/p>\n
Get up, stand up
\nStand up for your rights
\nGet up, stand up
\nDon’t give up the fight
\n[x2]<\/p>\n
You, preacher man don’t tell me
\nHeaven is under the earth
\nYou a duppy and you don’t know
\nWhat life is really worth<\/p>\n
It’s not all that glitter is gold
\nAnd half the story has never been told
\nSo now we see the light
\nWe gonna stand up for our rights
\nCome on<\/p>\n
Get up, stand up (Brothers)
\nStand up for your rights (Come on)
\nGet up, stand up (Sisters)
\nDon’t give up the fight (Don’t give up the fight)<\/p>\n
(I’m begging you to)
\nGet up, stand up
\nStand up for your rights
\nGet up, stand up
\n(I say don’t give up the fight) Don’t give up the fight<\/p>\n
Cause you know most people think
\nA great God will come from the skies
\nTake away everything
\nAnd left everybody dry<\/p>\n
But if you know what life is worth
\nThen you would look for yours on earth
\nAnd now you see the light
\nWe gonna stand up for your rights
\nCome on<\/p>\n
Get up, stand up (Don’t make the push you ’round)
\nStand up for your rights (Don’t let them hold you down)
\nGet up, stand up
\nDon’t give up the fight (Don’t give up the fight)<\/p>\n
I say get up, stand up
\nStand up for your rights (Don’t let them hold you down)
\nGet up, stand up
\nDon’t give up the fight (Don’t give up the fight)<\/p>\n
We’re sick and tired of this game of technology
\nHumbly asking Jesus for his mercy
\nWe know, we know and we understand
\nAlmighty Jah is a living man<\/p>\n
You fool some people sometimes
\nBut you can’t fool all the people all the time
\nAnd now we see the light
\nWe gonna stand up for our rights
\nCome on<\/p>\n
Get up, stand up
\nStand up for your rights (Come on now brothers)
\nGet up, stand up
\nDon’t give up the fight (I say don’t give up the fight)<\/p>\n
(Don’t let them push you ’round)
\nI say get up, stand up
\nStand up for your rights (Come on now sisters)
\nGet up, stand up
\nDon’t give up the fight (I say don’t give up the fight)<\/p>\n
