Lyrics:
THE WAY IT OUGHTA BE

I been thinking bout the world and the way it oughta be
In my mind I picture children playin so carefree
Free from littered playgrounds on fields and pavement kept so clean
Tell me aint that the way it supposed to be

I been thinking bout the world and the way it oughta be
In my mind I picture birds winging in the sky so free
Free from smog that holds em back and soils air so sweet
Tell me aint that the way it supposed to be

G C
Tell me why.
C G
Why cant we all live in peace
Tell me why
Why cant we keep our fields of green
Tell me why.
Why cant we let each other be.. A7
G D C G
Tell me aint that the way its supposed to be

I been thinking bout the world and the way it oughta be
In my mind I picture fish swimming in the river oh so free
Free from manmade muck that makes it hard for them to breathe
Tell me aint that the way it supposed to be

I been thinking bout the world and the way it oughta be
In my mind I picture forests with green stuff growin free
Free from saws and urban sprawl leaving room for tall proud trees
Tell me aint that the way it supposed to be

G C
Tell me why.
C G
Why cant we all live in peace
Tell me why
Why cant we keep our fields of green
Tell me why.
Why cant we let each other be.. A7
G D C G
Tell me aint that the way its supposed to be

G. C
I been thinking bout the world and the way it oughta be
C..F..G
In my mind I picture people livin lives of joy so free
G..A7
Free from fear and hate born of tragedy
A7 G D C G
Tell me aint that the way it supposed to be

Tell me aint that the way its supposed to be..
