For What It's Worth Lyrics & Chords By The Staple Singers

Something happenin' here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware
It's time we stop, children
What's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Battle lines being drawn
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking their minds
Getting so much resistance from behind
It's time we stop, children
What's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
What a field day for the heat
Thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly sayin', hooray for our side
It's time we stop, children
What's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
Starts when you're always afraid
Step out of line
The man come and takes you away
It's time we stop, children
What's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, children
What's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, children
What's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
