1. 개요
미국의 블루 아이드 소울 밴드 더 래스컬스가 1968년 7월 1일에 발매한 싱글이며 이들의 5집 Freedom Suite의 첫 싱글로 발매되었다.2. 상세
흑인들의 블랙 파워 무브먼트, 백인들의 히피 운동과 관련 있는 가사와, 래스컬스답게 당시의 흑인 음악 사운드를 잘 녹여내어 1968년 미국에서 공전의 히트를 거두었다.3. 가사
| All the world over, so easy to see People everywhere just wanna be free Listen, please listen, that's the way it should be There's peace in the valley, people got to be free You should see what a lovely, lovely world this'd be Everyone learned to live together, ah hah Seems to me such an itty bitty thing should be Why can't you and me learn to love one another? All the world over, so easy to see People everywhere just wanna be free (wanna be free) I can't understand it, so simple to me People everywhere just got to be free If there's a man who is down and needs a helpin' hand All it takes is you to understand and to pull him through, ah hah Seems to me we got to solve it individually, ah ah And I'll do unto you what you do to me Said, no Shout it from the mountain on out to the sea No two ways about it, people have to be free (they gotta be free) Ask me my opinion, my opinion will be Natural situation for a man to be free Get right on board now, huh, huh Oh, what a feelin's just come over me Love can move a mountain, make a blind man see Everybody sing it now come on let's go see Peace in the valley now, we all can be free See that train over there? Now that's the train of freedom It's about to 'rrive any minute, now You know it's been'a long, long overdue Look out 'cause it's a'comin' right on through Ha, ha, yeah |
