now's the time for all good men

to get together with one another

we've got to iron out our problems

and iron out our quarrels

and try to live as brothers

we've got to try to find peace within

without stepping on one another

and do respect the women of the world

in the world in which we live

we gotta help each man and each woman be better

by the kindness that we give
