People

[Verse 1:]

If everybody were poor we would all be rich

If everybody up on this Earth were poor we would all be rich

If I had no work I would enjoy life

I would put my family first

I would spend some time with my baby

I would love them more and more

If I was poor I'd cut down trees to build my roof

I'd hunt in the forest

Get my fish from the ocean

Yeah, and we would live like the king and the queen

And we would have a little princess or prince

We would never have felt more free

[Chorus:]

People, people will always be people to me

Yeah, people, people will always be people to me

Yeah, we do wrong, we do right

Yeah, we do wrong and we do right

Yeah, we do wrong and do right

Cause people will always be people to me

[Verse 2:]

Here comes another Friday (Friday)

I haven't had work in weeks

I just wanna make a living (living)

And I promise I wouldn't need the sleep

If I could work everyday, work everyday, work everyday

Oh no, work everyday, work everyday, work everyday

I, I'd even work at night

I'd never take a day off rest of my life

I would send the kids to school, make sure they're alright

And make sure they're better than I, better than

[Chorus]

[Interlude]
