Curtis Mayfield - We Got to Have Peace [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
We got have peace
To keep the world alive and war to cease

We got to have joy
True in our hearts with strength we can't destroy

People hear us
Through our voice the world knows there's no choice

We're begging save the children
The little ones who just don't understand

Give them a chance
To breed their young and help purify the land

People hear us
Through our voice the world knows there's no choice

[Refrain]
And the people in the neighbourhood
Who would if they only could,
Meet and shake the other's hand,
Work together for the good of the land.
Give us all an equal chance,
It could be such a sweet romance.
And the soldiers who are dead and gone,
If only we could bring back one,

[Post-refrain]
He'd say "We've got to have peace"
To keep the world alive and war to cease

[Verse 2]
We got to have joy
True in our hearts with strength we can't destroy

People hear us
Through our voice the world knows there's no choice

[Refrain]

[Post-refrain]
He'd say "We've got to have peace"
Aah - hah, we got to have peace
Let Let the world know it

Peace, peace, peace
Aah - hah, we got to have peace

[Verse 3]
People hear us
Through our voice the world knows there's no choice

[Break]
Save the children
Save the children
Save the children

[Refrain]

[Post-refrain]
He'd say "We've got to have peace"
Lord, we got to have peace

Let the people say it:
Peace, peace, peace
Aah - hah, we got to have peace
Peace, peace, peace
Aah - hah, we got to have peace
Peace, peace, peace
Aah - hah, we got to have peace
