歌詞

spoken: Pete Seeger You might be interested to hear about the next song which we - Mr. Grant, the Lord Invader, is going to sing. He came round to one of our hootenannies down at Irving Plaza about a month ago, and he saw us there and he came backstage and he said, "Boys this is fine, I wish I could be with you guys and what can I do?" And here we all were singing and we said, "Well, it's your business to make up songs, how about making up a song?' So he said, "All right, I'll do that.' And next day he walked into the office of People's Songs and he sang us this song Lord Invader This is a very interesting number ladies and gentlemen and it's entitled "God Made Us All. I thank you. If you are a Negro you can plainly see That you're bound to suffer misery and tyranny If you are a Negro you can plainly see That you're bound to suffer misery and tyranny But we all should be race conscious and always be Living in unity and tranquillity For God made us all, and in him we trust Nobody in this world is better than us We are not against the White people in any way For they made us what we are today We must offer thanks to Abraham Lincoln Queen Victoria and Booker T. Washington We are now living in a world of civilization And yet there is so much discrimination For God made us all, and in him we trust Nobody in this world is better than us Now listen what I am outlining to you Negroes fought in World Wars One and Two Some lose their lives, others lose they hand We fought gallantly for the United Nation So if we Negroes are good enough to fight I don't see why we can't have our equal right For God made us all, and in him we trust Nobody in this world is better than us Yes we ought to unite with one another As the scripture say, to love thy neighbor I If you are a Jew or an Italian A Negro or a subject of Great Britain This is what I want you to realize Six feet of earth make us all of one size For God made us all, and in him we trust Nobody in this world is better than us Yes I heard this speaking of democracy That is only diplomacy and hypocrisy It is about time this should be cut out The way they treat the Negroes down South In my opinion it is a burning shame Like they want to bring back slavery again For God made us all, and in him we trust Nobody in this world is better than us
