La La (Peace Song)

Mmm hmm, la la, oh, yeah

What's that sound, so profound
Over heads of children, Lord
As they pass

Sounds like thunder
But there's no rain
This kind of thunder blows down
Doors and walls and things

Ah, somebody's crying
For those dying
But no one knows
How long it's gonna last

Steel birds falling to the ground
Not knowing what's below
When the end comes, tell me now
Where we gonna go

Oh, people, that's my
La la la la peace song
La la la la, tell me
Why can't we get along

[01:13.50]Oh, people, that's my
[01:15.67]La la la la peace song
[01:18.01]La la la la, tell me
[01:19.38]Why can't we get along

[01:23.05]Oh, I'll tell you why
[01:28.46]It's not safe to fly
[01:30.54]You might get hijacked
[01:32.81]To an unknown land

[01:35.62]Desperate people seeking refuge
[01:40.84]From corruption, oh
[01:42.07]By means of subterfuge

[01:45.03]Oh! sabotage, Oh! sabotage men at large
[01:53.05]Innocent people suffering
[02:54.46]By another's hand

[01:57.54]Racial injustice dividing men
[02:03.81]Allowing their hate to grow
[02:04.62]Tell me, when's it gonna end

[02:07.84]Whoa, oh, people, that's my
[02:10.07]La la la la la la la peace song
[02:12.03]La la la la, tell me,
[02:15.05]Why can't we get along

[02:17.46]Oh, people, that's my
[02:19.54]La la la la la la la peace song
[02:23.81]La la la la, tell me
[02:24.62]Why can't we get along
[02:27.84]Oh, sing it with me now

[02:50.07]Oh, hear me, that's my
[02:52.03]La la la la la peace song
[02:55.05]La la la la, tell me
[02:56.46]Why can't we get along

[03:01.54]Oh, hear that sound, so profound
[03:07.81]It's the voice of people
[03:09.62]Lord, hear them pray

[03:12.84]Feel the strength of their words
[03:18.07]Lead us not to temptation
[03:20.03]Lest we go astray

[03:22.05]Oh, people, that's my
[03:24.46]La la la la peace song
[03:27.54]La la la la, tell me
[03:29.81]Why can't we get along

[03:33.62]Oh, that's my
[03:34.84]La la la la la peace song
[03:37.07]La la la la, tell me
[03:39.03]Why can't we get along
