What’s Going On (Detroit Mix) lyrics

by

Marvin Gaye


[Verse 1]
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, yeah
Father, father, we don't need to escalate
You see, war is not the answer
For only love can conquer hate
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today, oh

[Chorus]
Picket lines (Sister) and picket signs (Sister)
Don't punish me (Sister) with brutality (Sister)
Talk to me (Sister), so you can see (Sister)
Oh, what's going on (What's going on)
What's going on (What's going on)
Yeah, what's going on (What's going on)
Ah, what's going on (What's going on)

[Post-Chorus]
In the meantime, right on, baby
Right on, baby, woo
I yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
Woo, right on, baby, right on, right on
I yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
A-doo-bi-doo, bip-bip-bid-doo (Bip-bip-bid-doo)
A-doo-bip-bip-bid-doo, bip-bip-bip-bip-bid-doo
[Verse 2]
Mother, mother, everybody thinks we're wrong
Oh, but who are they to judge us
Simply 'cause our hair is long
Oh, you know we've got to find a way
To bring some understanding here today
Oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
Picket lines (Brother) and picket signs (Brother)
Don't punish me (Brother) with brutality (Brother)
C'mon, talk to me (Brother), so you can see (Brother)
What's going on (What's going on)
Yeah, what's going on (What's going on)
Tell me, what's going on (What's going on)
I'll tell you what's going on (What's going on)

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, hoo, hoo hoo hoo
Right on, right on, baby, right on, right on
I yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
Woo, woo, right on, baby, right on
I yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
A-doo-bi-doo, bip-bip-bid-doo
A-doo-bip-bip-bid-doo, bip-bip-bip-bip-bip-bip-bid-doo
[Outro]
Woo, right on, brother, right on
I yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi...
*chatter*
