Verse 1
(C major) But I mean, (B major) when the people listen,
they (C major) go out and put their minds on the right thing,
(B flat major) put their fists on the right thing,
vote for the right man,
then (F major) we'll have a little peace
in the world.
Yeah, if we don't get (D major) the right man,
we ain't gonna have
(A major) no peace in the world.
Cause I (C major) met an old (B major) man, he was around,
he called him (G major) self something,
he was a (C major) different type of man
(A flat minor) from how I was.
But anyhow, (B major) where he come from,
he was around about (B flat major) 75. He said, (C major) and I walked in the (B flat major) bar and drill, he said,
(C major) look, my (B flat major) friend in the world said, I was down in (C major) Georgia in the world,
and so I was in the bar
and drill in the world,
(B flat major) and said, I asked the man (B major) for a drink in the (B flat major) world,
and said, he (B major) let me have it,
(G major) and some (F major) colored people was (C major) back in the back (B major) in the world,
and (C major) so I asked him, could I go back there and talk
to them colored people in (F major) the world?
He said, (A minor) yes.
And (E minor) so I went back
there in the world
and talked (B major) to the people in the world,
and then I (B flat major) wanted to bring
them in.
Now, I come back
(E flat major) and ask him, can I (E minor) bring them in,
I want to give them a drink in the world.
He said,
(A minor) no, you can't bring them in here.
He said, well, but I don't
think that's right in the world.
I said, (C major) because I want
them to come
and we'll all have a (A minor) drink together
in the world.
He said, (B flat major) look,
(E flat major) would you have a drink on me in the world?
(B flat major) I said, yes, I'll take a drink on you.
Well, he kept on, he said, well,
we're in the world.
And I (B flat minor) comes in, get (B major) my drinks in the (E flat major) world,
and I go home and get in the
(B flat major) bed in the world.
(B major) I don't have no wife in the world,
(F major) but I think every (A minor) body's in
the world
(B flat major) should be in the world.
And so (G major) af ter a while, he talked so much,
and I said, look,
would you take a drink (B major) on me in the world?
know, (A minor) got me used in the world.
So ever since that (C major) time, I've been thinking about
the people in the world,
(B minor) and the one (B flat major) thing you can get peace.
We (A minor) all got to peace,
get (B major) peace together
because we're in the world
together.
(A minor) So when you get peace,
let it be in (B flat major) the world.
(A minor) Got to be in the world.
You what I mean?
(C major) It's one of them (F major) things.
Right, (B flat major) in the world.
(A minor) That man said that in the world,
I never heard nothing like it.
(B flat major) Now you got it now.
