Wake Up Everybody (Part 1) (Rerecorded) Lyrics
Wake Up Everybody (Part 1) - Harold Melvin & The Bluenotes
Wake up everybody
No more sleepin' in bed
No more backward thinkin'
Time for thinkin' ahead
The world has changed
So very much
From what it used to be
There is so much hatred
War and poverty
Whoa oh
Wake up all the teachers
Time to teach a new way
Maybe then they'll listen
To what'cha have to say
They're the ones who's coming up
And the world is in their hands
When you teach the children
Teach 'em the very best you can
The world won't get no better
If we just let it be na na na
Na na na na
The world won't get no better
We gotta change it yeah
Just you and me
Yeah
Wake up all the doctors
Make the old people well
They're the ones who suffer
And who catch all the hell
They don't have so very long
Before the judgment day
So won't'cha make them happy
Before they pass away
Wake up all the builders
Time to build a new land
I know we can do it
If we all lend a hand
The only thing we have to do
Is put it in our minds
Surely things will work out
They do it every time
The world won't get no better
If we just let it be na na na
Na na na na
The world won't get no better
We gotta change it world
Just you and me yeah
Can't do it alone
I need some help y'all
Can't do it alone
No
Wake up
Everybody
Wake up
Get up
Everybody
Wake up
Get up everybody
Yeah
Wake up
Get up everybody
I'm talkin' about the d**e pusher
Get up everybody

Wake up yeah
