A caravan family that sang religious songs
Why can't we all just get along
Broke down at Walmart near old Tucson
Why can't we all just get along
Mom said our car broke, we can't move on
Why can't we all just get along?
Father said something fishy is goin' o
Why can't we all just get along
Batons were drawn in a beat down marathon
Why can't we all just get along
Cops chase one son, beat him like a gong
Why can't we all just get along
One son was shot, he didn't live long
Why can't we all just get along
A deadly fight among a frantic throng
Why can't we all just get along
Sittin' cryin' by the river of Babylon
Why can't we all just get along
Their tragic brawl's a net phenomenon
Why can't we all just get along
We're all God's children, our voices lift in song
Why can't we all just get along
Now some of you there will sneer at this song
Why can't we all just get along
