Lyrics:

(Get up, stand up
Stand up for your rights
Get up, stand up
Stand up for your rights)

(Get up, stand up
Stand up for your rights
Get up, stand up
Don't give up the fight)

Preacher man, don't tell me
Heaven is under the earth
I know you don't know
What life is really worth

It's not all that glitter is gold
Half the story has never been told
So now you see the light, hey!
Stand up for your rights, come on

(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)

Most people think
Great God will come from the sky
Take away everything
And make everybody feel high

But if you know what life is worth
You would look for yours on earth
And now you've seen the light
You stand up for your rights, yeah!

(Get up, stand up) Yeah, yeah
(Stand up for your rights) Oooh!
(Get up, stand up) Get up, stand up
Don't give up the fight, life is your right

(Get up, stand up) So we can't give up the fight
(Stand up for your rights) Lord, lord
(Get up, stand up) Keep on strubbling on
(Don't give up the fight) Yeah

You're sick and tired of the ism-schism game
Dy'n go to heaven in a Jesus name, lord
We know and we understand
Almighty god is a livin' man

You can fool some people some times
But you can fool all the people all the times
So now we see the light (Watch it, boy!)
We gonna stand up for our rights (Yeah, yeah, yeah!)

(Get up, stand up) In the lord, yeah
(Stand up for your rights) Stand up for your rights
(Get up, stand up
Don't give up the fight) Don't give up, don't give it up

(Get up, stand up) Get up, stand up
(Stand up for your rights) Get up, stand up
(Get up, stand up
Don't give up the fight) Get up, stand up

(Get up, stand up
Stand up for your rights
Get up, stand up
Stand up for your rights)
