Get up, stand up! Stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up! Don't give up the fight!
Get up, stand up! Stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up! Don't give up the fight!

You preacher-man, don't tell me,
Heaven is under the earth.
You a duppy and you don't know,
What life is really worth.
It's not all that glitters is gold,
And half the story has never been told:
So now we see the light, ey!
We gonna stand up for your rights, come on!

Get up, stand up! Stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up! Don't give up the fight!
Get up, stand up! Stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up! Don't give up the fight!

'Cause you know, most people think,
A great God will come from the skies,
Take away everything,
And left everybody dry.
But if you know what life is worth,
You would look for yours right here on earth,
And now you see the light,
We gonna stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up! Stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up! Don't give up the fight!
Get up, stand up! Stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up! Don't give up the fight!

We're sick and tired of this game of technology,
Humbly asking Jesus for his mercy.
We know and we know and understand,
Almighty Jah is a living man.

You fool some people sometimes,
But you can't fool all the people all the time.
And now we see the light,
We gonna stand up for our rights!

Get up, stand up! Stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up! Don't give up the fight!
Get up, stand up! Stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up! Don't give up the fight!
