Higher Ground Lyrics - Red Hot Chili Peppers

1 People, keep on learning

2 Soldiers, keep on warring

3 World, keep on turning

4 'Cause it won't be too long

5 Powers, keep on lying

6 While your people keep on dying

7 World, keep on turning

8 'Cause it won't be too long

9 I'm so darn glad He let me try it again

10 'Cause my last time on earth, I lived a whole world of sin

11 I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then

12 Gonna keep on trying till I reach the highest ground

13 Teachers, keep on teaching

14 Preachers, keep on preaching

15 World, keep on turning

16 'Cause it won't be too long

17 Oh, no

18 Lovers, keep on loving

19 While believers keep on believing

20 Sleepers, just stop sleeping

21 'Cause it won't be too long

22 Oh, no

23 I'm so darn glad He let me try it again

24 'Cause my last time on earth, I lived a whole world of sin

25 I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then

26 Gonna keep on trying till I reach the highest ground

27 (Spoken:)

28 And Stevie knows that, uh, nobody's gonna bring me down

29 Till I reach the highest ground

30 'Cause me 'n' Stevie, see

31 We're gonna be a sailing on the funky sound

32 Till I reach the highest ground

33 Busting out, and I'll break you out, 'cause I'm sailing on

34 Till I reach the highest ground

35 Just, uh, sailing on, sailing on the higher ground

36 Till I reach the highest ground
