25 years of my life and still I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hope for a destination I realized quickly when I knew I should that the world was made up of this brotherhood of man for whatever that means
chorus: 'n so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed just to get it all out what's in my head 'n I, I'm feeling a little peculiar 'n so I wake in the morning and I step outside 'n I take a deep breath 'n I get real high 'n I scream from the top of my lungs what's goin' on and I say hey-ey-ey... (jodel-di-dodel...) and I said hey what's going on and I say hey... etc. (uh! uu-uuhu-huhuuuu...) I said hey what's going on
and I try, oh my God do I try I try all the time in this institution and I pray, oh my God do I pray I pray ev'ry single day for a revolution
(chorus)
