Cheer Up

Cheer up my brothers, cheer up my sisters
Cheer up my momma too, Lord
Cheer up my father, let me say
I know it won't be long,
That change has got to come;
That change has got to come;
And I know that it won't be long

We've been down in captivity (captivity) so long, so long
If we unite then we will be free (we will be free)
So strong, so strong, come I want you to,
Cheer up my (brothers), my sisters
(cheer up my sisters) let me say
Cheer up my, my, my momma too, Lord
Cheer up my father

Let me say, we've been down in captivity, (captivity)
So long, so long
We unite, we will be free, (we will be free)
So strong, so strong
Cheer up my, my brother
(cheer up my sister) cheer up my sisters
(cheer up my momma) my momma too, Lord
(cheer up my) my father
And I, I, I...
