If you're tired of the crying, c'mon
If you're tired of people dying, c'mon
Ooh child, things will get brighter
Some day when the world is much brighter
Uncle Donnie, sing
Some day when the world is much brighter
Some day, yes, we'll put it together and we'll get all down
Like your daddy said, things will get brighter
God says that it's over, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Some day, yes, we'll put it together and we'll get all down
Some day, when the world is much brighter
Just you wait and see, things will get brighter
Now I know things in the world lookin' crazy right now
Baby girl, things will get brighter
Oh, my baby boy, things are gonna get easier
'Til you wake up in the morning, child
If you're tired of the fightin', c'mon
Some day, yes, we'll put it together and we'll get all down
Some day when the world is much brighter
All my people in the world, c'mon
Some day when the world is much brighter
Every boy, every girl, c'mon
Some day yes, we'll put it together and we'll get it all down
Some day, yes, we'll walk in the rays of the beautiful sun
Some day, yes, we'll walk in the rays of the beautiful sun
Some day yes, we'll walk in the rays of the beautiful sun
Some day, yes, we'll walk in the rays of the beautiful sun
Some day, when the world is much brighter
Ooh child, things are gonna get easier
'Til you wake up in the morning, child
But there's a word of encouragement for you, boy
No more wars, no more lyin', c'mon
Some day yes, we'll put it together and we'll get it all down
Ooh child, things are gonna get easier
Some day, when the world is much brighter
If you know it ain't over 'til
Some day, when the world is much brighter
Ooh child, things will get brighter
Ooh child, things are gonna get easier
Some day when the world is much brighter
Some day, when the world is much brighter
Ooh child, things are gonna get easier
'Til you wake up in the morning, child
Some day yes, we'll walk in the rays of the beautiful sun
But you don't know what's gonna happen next
