Preacherman, donīt tell me,
Heaven is under the earth.
I know you donīt know
What life is really worth.
Itīs not all that glitters is gold;
īAlf the story has never been told:
So now you see the light, eh!
Stand up for your rights. Come on!
Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: donīt give up the fight!
Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: donīt give up the fight!
Most people think,
Great God will come from the skies,
Take away everything
And make everybody feel high.
But if you know what life is worth,
You will look for yours on earth:
And now you see the light,
You stand up for your rights. Jah!
Get up, stand up! (Jah, Jah!)
Stand up for your rights! (Oh-hoo!)

Donīt give up the fight! (Life is your right!)
Get up, stand up! (So we canīt give up the fight!)
Stand up for your rights! (Lord, Lord!)
Get up, stand up! (Keep on struggling on!)
Donīt give up the fight! (Yeah!)
We sick anī tired of-a your ism-skism game -
Dyinī īnī goinī to heaven in-a Jesusī name, Lord.
We know when we understand:
Almighty God is a living man.
You can fool some people sometimes,
But you canīt fool all the people all the time.
So now we see the light (What you gonna do?),
We gonna stand up for our rights! (Yeah, yeah, yeah!)
So you better:
Get up, stand up! (In the morning! Git it up!)
Stand up for your rights! (Stand up for our rights!)
Get up, stand up!
Donīt give up the fight! (Donīt give it up, donīt give it up!)
Get up, stand up! (Get up, stand up!)
