[Verse 1]
There's a little bitty boy down in Jamaica
Who has the gift of seeing second sight
He sees the world and all it's troubles
But inside his heart the sun is shining bright
[Verse 2]
So everybody shout to your brother
Everybody sing, let your spirit fly away
Oh, oh, oh, shout to your brother
So all the people have a brighter day
[Verse 3]
Well the network news went down to the island
To try to understand the things he sees
But he just laughed and he waved at the camera
He said, open up your mind and follow me
[Verse 4]
So everybody shout to your brother
Everybody sing, let your spirit fly away
Oh, oh, oh, shout to your brother
So all the people have a brighter day
[Verse 5]
When people go to war it hurts us all, you see
They don't feel the need to congregate
I may be just a boy but I am not a fool
Our leaders need to simplify instead of complicate
[Verse 6]
So everybody shout to your brother
Everybody sing, let your spirit fly away
Oh, oh, oh, shout to your brother
So all the people have a brighter day
[Verse 7]
Everybody
Yeah, yeah
Everybody
[Verse 8]
Everybody shout to your brother
Said, everybody sing, can ya hear him say?
Oh, oh, oh, shout to your brother
So all the people have a brighter day
[Verse 9]
Can you hear him sayin'
Everybody shout to the little bitty boy
Everybody sing, all the people just gotta believe
Oh, oh, oh, shout to your brother
I wanna tell ya, all the people have a brighter day
[Verse 10]
Oh, oh, can ya hear what the little boy say?
