Lynyrd Skynyrd Things Goin' On song lyrics

Well have you ever lived down in the ghetto?

Have you ever felt that cold wind blow?

Well if you don't know what I mean

Won't you stand up and scream?

'cause there's things goin' on that you don't know

Too many lives they spent across the ocean

Too much money they spent upon the moon

Well until they make it right

I hope they never sleep at night

They better make some changes and do it soon

Do it now

Do it good

Well they're gonna ruin the air that we breathe Lord have mercy

They're gonna ruin us all by and by

I'm telling all you beware

I don't think they really care

Think they just sit up there

And just get high

Well have you ever lived down in the ghetto?

Have you ever felt that cold wind blow?

Well if you don't know what I mean

Won't you stand up and scream?

'cause there's things goin' on that you don't know

Well if you don't know what I mean

Won't you stand up and scream?

'cause there's things goin' on that you don't know

Tell it

Tell it, tell it.
