EVERYDAY PEOPLE

music and lyrics by Sylvester Stewart, copyright © 1969

Sometimes I'm right and I can be wrong
My own beliefs are in my song
The butcher, the banker, the drummer and then
Makes no difference what group I'm in

I am everyday people, yeah, yeah
There is a blue one who won’t accept
The green one for living with
A fat one tryin' to be a skinny one

Different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on and scooby-dooby-dooby - Ooh sha sha
We got to live together

I am no better and neither are you
We're all the same, whatever we do
You love me, you hate me, you know me and then
You can't figure out the bag I'm in

I am everyday people
There is a long hair
That doesn't like the short hair
For being such a rich one
That will not help the poor one

Different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on, scooby-dooby-dooby - Ooh sha sha
We got to live together

There is a yellow one that won't
Accept the black one
That won't accept the red one
That won't accept the white one

Different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on and
Scooby-dooby-dooby - Ooh sha sha
I am everyday people
