Freedom summer ‘64
What if the whole world stops hating
Why are we waiting?
Feast or famine—pressure’s on
Baby’s hungry, money’s gone
One more empty stomach aching
Why are we waiting?
We seen kings and queens and presidents
Who said their cure was heaven-sent
Guess we should’ve kept on praying
Poets, preachers, prophets tell us love can only stop it
Why are we waiting?
Never gonna give up
Gangs are bangin brothers down
In the city streets, country towns
Another mother’s heart is breaking
Why are we waiting?
Television shows it all
Free speech—is it for us all
What kind of world have we created
Why are we waiting?
Bombs exploding—holy wars Freedom summer ‘64 What if the whole world stops hating Why are we waiting? Feast or famine—pressure’s on Baby’s hungry, money’s gone One more empty stomach aching Why are we waiting? We seen kings and queens and presidents Who said their cure was heaven-sent Guess we should’ve kept on praying Poets, preachers, prophets tell us love can only stop it Why are we waiting? Never gonna give up Gangs are bangin brothers down In the city streets, country towns Another mother’s heart is breaking Why are we waiting? Television shows it all Free speech—is it for us all What kind of world have we created Why are we waiting? Explain Request ×
