Get up stand up, stand up for your right   Get up stand up, don't give up the fight      Preacher man don't tell me   Heaven is under the earth   I know you don't know   What life is really worth   It's not all that glitters is gold   Half the story has never been told   So now you see the light   Stand up for your right      Get up stand up, stand up for your right   Get up stand up, don't give up the fight      Most people think   Great God will come from the sky   Take away everything   And make everybody feel high   But if you knew what life is worth   You could look for yours on earth   And now you've seen the light   Stand up for your rights      Get up stand up, stand up for your right   Get up stand up, don't give up the fight      We're sick and tired of your easing kissing   Gone to die and go to heaven in jesus name   We know and we understand   Almighty God is a living man   You can fool some people sometimes   But you can't fool all the people all the time   And we've seen the light   We're gonna stand up for our rights
