Ain't That Tellin' You People

There's a million smokey faces And a million starvin' faces And a disillusioned preacher With an empty head There's a hold baby cryin' And a young man somewhere dyin' But we just can't hear them callin' Above the band Ain't that tellin' you people That the whole world needs a changing Ain't that tellin' you people That we dig and plough Ain't that showin' you brother That your life needs re-arranging Ain't that tellin' us all That we better start right now There's a school that's done some burning Gotta put an end to learning While the politician's talking To an empty room And the only kind of thunder Is the kind we're living under As we sweep away the future With a ten cent broom Ain't that tellin' you people That the whole world needs a changing Ain't that tellin' you people That we dig and plough Ain't that showin' you brother That your life needs re-arranging Ain't that tellin' us all That we better start right now Cause there's no time to be wasted There's a good life to be tasted If we tie ourselves together In a chain of love Ain't that tellin' you people That the whole world needs a changing Ain't that tellin' you people That we dig and plough Ain't that showin' you brother That your life needs re-arranging Ain't that tellin' us all That we better start right now.
