Be Good

Jesus Christ was a handsome man

He had nothin to hide

He said, give this bread to the hungry

bring the homeless inside 

 

Jesus Christ was a dangerous man

That’s the way that he died

Sayin, be good to the people you love

And love everybody alive

 

Be good to the people

Be good to the people

be good to the people you love

And love everybody alive

 

Dr. King was a preacher

he had God on his side

He said, all God’s children are brothers

Don’t cast your brother aside

 

Dr. King was a dangerous man

That’s the way that he died

He said, be good to the people you love

And love everybody alive

 

Be good to the people

Be good to the people

be good to the people you love

And love everybody alive

 

There ain’t nothin more criminal than kindness

There ain’t nothin more valuable than blindness

We’ll make anyone a martyr who’ll remind us

Everybody’s got a right to be free

 

Be good to the people

Be good to the people

be good to the people you love

And love everybody alive

 

Be good to the people

Be good to the people

be good to the people you love

And love everybody alive
