I believe there'll come a day when justice will be done
I believe there'll be a day when we will surely overcome
All the race hypocrisy that's crippling our world
We can all get together, black or white or whatever you may choose to call yourself
Someone's always crying out in hunger or in pain
Noone's ever got an answer, isn't it a crying shame?
Every man's has a right to question being, big or small,
So tell me why does everybody keep pretending the case isn't that we're living ‘fore a fall?
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
We only have a world
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
We owe it to ourselves and God
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
It's such a beautiful world
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
Oooooh
Always seems that someone's getting richer everyday
So that means a poor man somewhere sure will have a price to pay
Should our lives be judged upon their pounds and dollar bills?
How can we do this to each other?
Why does someone have to suffer while others get the blame?
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
We only have a world
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
We owe it to ourselves and God
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
It's such a beautiful world
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
Oooooh
I believe there'll come a day when justice will be done
I believe there'll be a day when we will surely overcome
Love and understanding's all we need to make things right
So let's all get together,
We can all make things better and live a better life
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
We only have a world
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
We owe it to ourselves and God
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
It's such a beautiful world
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
Oooooh
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
We only have a world
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
We owe it to ourselves and God
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
It's such a beautiful world
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
Oooooh
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
We only have a world
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
We owe it to ourselves and God
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
It's such a beautiful world
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
Oooooh
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
We only have a world
Gotta get it right
Gotta get it right
We owe it to ourselves and God
Gotta get it right
