People Make the World Go 'Round - Monty Alexander, Sly Dunbar, Robbie Shakespeare

People…

('round and 'round and around…)

People make the world go 'round

('round and 'round and around…)

Teachers on strike, no more school today

They want more money but the board won’t pay

People

Everybody’s talkin' 'bout ecology

The air’s so polluted that it’s hard to breathe

People

Rrefrain

But that’s what makes the world go round

The ups and downs a carousel

Changing people’s heads around

Go underground young men…

People make the world go round…

Old folks judge you by the clothes you wear

They’d swear you’re a hippy if you have long hair

Young politicians fight for poverty

While people still cry for equality

Refrain

But that’s what makes the world go round

The ups and downs a carousel

Changing people’s heads around

Go underground young men…

People make the world go round…

(instrumental)

Refrain

But that’s what makes the world go round

The ups and downs a carousel

Changing people’s heads around

Go underground young men…

People make the world go round…
