This Day - John Brown's Body

When you speak you pray

Say a word and it shall be

Be mindful of the words you speak

Come on and take a walk down freedom street

The most High you, you take and you greet (?)

Say you want to live and be free;

Choose your words so carefully!

This Day’s such a nice day

This way is the right way to live

And to die (hi-hi hi hi)

Listen to the children play

Listen to what numbers they say

There are only ways to go:

You can choose peace or war

This Day is such a nice day

Positive is the right way to live

And to love (and to love!)

Every word has a meaning

Words you use gonna catch up on you, yes!

Every meaning has reason:

Reasons you can pick and choose

This Day’s such a nice day

This way is the right way to live

And to die (hi-hi hi hi)

To Live, yeah, To Die

To Live…
