Solidarity

Black Uhuru - Solidarity Lyrics

What's the matter, people?

Solidarity, solidarity

Everybody wants the same thing, don't they?
Everybody wants a happy end
They wanna see the game on Saturday
They wanna be somebody's friend

Everybody wanna work for a living
Everybody wants their children warm
Everybody wants to be forgiven
They want a shelter from the storm

Look at me, I ain't your enemy
We walk on common ground
We don't need to fight each other
What we need, what we need

Solidarity, solidarity
Solidarity, solidarity

Nobody likes to ask for money
Somebody likes to play the clown
Nobody likes to wait in a long line
Nobody likes being pushed around

Everybody wants their family protected
They wanna express themselves
Everybody wants to live forever

Look at me I ain't your enemy
Don't believe everything you hear
This is no time to fight each other
What we need, what we need

Solidarity, solidarity
Solidarity, solidarity
Solidarity, solidarity
Solidarity, solidarity
Solidarity, solidarity
Solidarity

Hey, people

Everybody wants the same thing, don't they?
Everybody wants a happy end
They wanna see the game on Saturday
They wanna be somebody's friend

Everybody wants the same thing, don't they?
Everybody wants a happy end
They wanna see the game on Saturday
They wanna be somebody's friend

Everybody wanna work for a living
They wanna keep their children warm
Everybody just wants to be forgiven
They want a shelter from the storm

What we need, what we need

Solidarity, solidarity
Solidarity, solidarity
Solidarity, solidarity
