歌词
We may seem happy, like everything's alright
From the outside looking in, everything's uptight
But deep down inside, we're covering up the pain
It's an old thing, it's a soul thing, but it's a real thing
Pray tell, what's gonna happen to brother?
Who's gonna help him get further?
Huh, one another, is that the truth?
One another, yeah, you're right
There's old dude, standing on a corner, waiting for a fox to pass
The only thing he's got to go by is this is where he saw last
And there's old John, two dollars in his
Pocket, talking loud and thinks he's rich
And look, the little fool, too cool to go
To school, get a job, in two days he quits
Pray tell, what's gonna happen to brother?
Who's gonna help him get further?
Huh, one another, is that the truth?
One another, yeah, you're right
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Mama get up early, early in the morning, Papa's already gone
Gone out working for half of what he's
Worth now, and you know that's wrong
What happened to the Liberty Bell I've heard so much about?
Did it really ding-dong? It must have
Dinged wrong, it didn't ding long
Pray tell, what's gonna happen to brother?
Who's gonna help him get further?
Huh, one another, is that the truth?
One another, yeah, you're right
Pray tell, what's gonna happen to brother?
Who's gonna help him get further?
Huh, one another, is that the truth?
One another, yeah, you're right
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Did it really ding-dong? (Ding-dong)
Hey, it must have dinged wrong, it didn't ding long
Did it really ding-dong? (Ding-dong)
It must have dinged wrong, it didn't ding long
Did it really ding-dong? (Ding-dong)
Hey, it must have dinged wrong, it didn't ding long
Did it really ding-dong? (Ding-dong)
It must have dinged wrong, it didn't ding long
Well
