Hey brothers, hear me call It ain't that I had to fall Wasn't no one's fault last night When I looked up and felt the light Here's hoping you'll understand I want to fell like a natural man Get up early in the morning to do what I can You can't help no one with money If you can't with your hands And you got to be there brothers, yes you do If the world is turning under you Ain't no good to sit around And bring it up or down You got to be there brothers, yes you do Hey brothers, now and then There's something that oughta move you More than a pen You don't need no school or knowledge You've got something else to lend And all the people in the world Can make it better again And it ain't easy, yes I know It's a hard and rugged road Don't be swindled, don't be fooled Just be honest and stay cool 'Cause you got to be there brothers, yes you do If the world is turning under you Ain't no good to sit around And bring it up or down You got to be there brothers, yes you do
