This Old Town People in This Town by The Staple Singers Lyrics
People in this town ain't got no faces
People in this town ain't got no faces
'Cause they just got love between the races
Just got love between the races
People in this town don't do no cryin'
People in this town don't do no cryin'
Don't have to rob or steal for survivin'
Don't have to rob and steal for survivin'
Thought you should be speakin' out
Just won't stay silent
And everybody knows
No man's an island
I saw a father and his son
Walking down the street, yes I did
You know what, they walked hand in hand
And oh what a beautiful sight to see
People in this town, they don't need no soldier
People in this town, they don't need no soldier
They don't go around looking over their shoulder
Just don't go around looking over their shoulder
Everybody's going around
Shakin' hands, lovin' everybody
Ain't got no room for aggravation
What they love is communication
Now open up your heart for me
Give a little love, it'll set you free
You don't have to go around searching for this town
Right in your heart, that's where it's found
People in this town ain't got no faces
People in this town ain't got no faces
'Cause they just got love between the races
Just got love between the races
People in this town ain't got no faces
'Cause they just got love between the races
Just got love between the races
People in this town don't do no cryin'
People in this town don't do no cryin'
Don't have to rob or steal for survivin'
Don't have to rob and steal for survivin'
Thought you should be speakin' out
Just won't stay silent
And everybody knows
No man's an island
I saw a father and his son
Walking down the street, yes I did
You know what, they walked hand in hand
And oh what a beautiful sight to see
People in this town, they don't need no soldier
People in this town, they don't need no soldier
They don't go around looking over their shoulder
Just don't go around looking over their shoulder
Everybody's going around
Shakin' hands, lovin' everybody
Ain't got no room for aggravation
What they love is communication
Now open up your heart for me
Give a little love, it'll set you free
You don't have to go around searching for this town
Right in your heart, that's where it's found
People in this town ain't got no faces
People in this town ain't got no faces
'Cause they just got love between the races
Just got love between the races
