If There's Hell Below Lyrics


Sisters, niggers, whities
Jews and the crackers
Don't worry, if there's hell below, we're all gotta go
AhSisters, brothers and the whities
Blacks and the crackers
Police and their backers
They're all political actorsHurry
People running from their worries
While the judge and the juries
Dictate the law that's partly flaw
Cat calling, love balling, fussing and cussing
Top billing now is killing
For peace no-one is willing
Kind of make you get that feelingEverybody smoke
Use the pill and the dope
Educated fools
From uneducated schools
Pimping people is the rule

Polluted water in the pool
And Nixon talking about don't worry
He says don't worry
He says don't worry
He says don't worryBut they don't know
There can be no show
And if there's a hell below
We're all gonna goEverybody's praying
And everybody's saying
But when come time to do
Everybody's layingJust talking about don't worry
They say don't worry
They say don't worry
They say don't worrySisters, brothers and the whities
Blacks and the crackers
Police and their backers
They're all political actorsSmoke, the pill and the dope
Educated fools
From uneducated schools
Pimping people is the rule
Polluted water in the poolAnd everybody saying don't worry
They say don't worry
They say don't worry
They say don't worryBut they don't know
There can be no show
And if there's a hell below
We're all gonna goLord, what we gonna do
Tell me what we gonna do
If everything I say is true?
This ain't no way it ought to be
If only all the mass could seeBut they keep talkin' 'bout don't worry
They say don't worry
They say don't worry
They say don't worry

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Curtis Mayfield (June 3, 1942 – December 26, 1999) was an American soul, funk and rhythm and blues, singer-songwriter and guitarist from Chicago, Illinois. Mayfield is probably best known for his anthemic music with The Impressions and for the soundtrack to the blaxploitation film Superfly. Perhaps because he didn't cross over to the pop audience as heavily as Motown's stars, it may be that the scope of Curtis Mayfield's talents and contributions have yet to be fully recognized. Judged merely by his records alone, the man's legacy is enormous.
