Lyrics

People
Keep on learnin'
Soldiers
Keep on warrin'
World
Keep on turnin'
Cause it won't be too long
Powers
Keep on lyin'
While your people
Keep on dyin
World
Keep on turnin'
Cause it won't be too long
I'm so darn glad he let me try it again
Cause my last time on earth I lived a whole world of sin
I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then
Gonna keep on tryin' till I reach the highest ground
Teachers
Keep on teachin'
Preachers
Keep on preachin'
World, keep on turnin'
Cause it won't be too long
Oh, no
Lovers
Keep on lovin'
While believers
Keep on believin'
Sleepers
Just stop sleepin'
Cause it won't be too long
Oh, no!
I'm so darn glad he let me try it again
Cause my last time on earth I lived a whole world of sin
I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then
Gonna keep on tryin' till I reach the highest ground
An Stevie knows that, uh, nobody's gonna bring me down
Till I reach the highest ground
'Cause me n Stevie, see, were gonna be a sailin'
On the funky sound
Till I reach the highest ground
Bustin' out, an I'll break you out, cause I'm
Sailin' on
Till I reach the highest ground
Just, uh, sailin' on sailin' on the higher ground
Till I reach the highest ground
