what's going on lyrics

Mother, mother
There's too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother
There's far too many of you dying
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today

Father, father
We don't need to escalate
Because war is not the answer
For only love can conquer hate
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some understandin' here today

Picket signs, brother
Picket lines, brother
Don't come to me, brother
With brutality, sister
'Cause talk to me, sister
And you will see, sister

Oh, what's goin' on, what's goin' on
What's goin' on, what's goin' on
What's goin' on, what's goin' on
Yeah, what's goin' on

Father, father
Everybody thinks we're wrong
Oh, but who are they to judge us
Simply because our hair is long
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today

With picket sign, brother
And picket line, brother
Don't come to me, brother
With brutality, sister
'Cause talk to me, sister
And you will see, sister

Oh, what's goin' on, what's goin' on
Oh, what's goin' on, what's goin' on
Oh, what's goin' on, what's goin' on
I'll tell you what's goin' on
What's goin' on, please tell me
