People

Keep on learnin

Soldiers

Keep on warrin

World,

Keep on turnin

Cause it wont be too long.

Powers

Keep on lyin,

While your people

Keep on dyin

World,

Keep on turnin,

Cause it wont be too long.

Chorus:

I'm so darn glad he let me try it again,

Cause my last time on earth I lived a whole world of

Sin.

I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then.

Gonna keep on tryin till I reach the highest ground.

Teachers,

Keep on teachin

Preachers,

Keep on preachin,

World, keep on turnin,

Cause it wont be too long.

Oh, no

Lovers,

Keep on lovin

While believers

Keep on believin.

Sleepers,

Just stop sleepin

Cause it wont be too long.

Oh, no!

Chorus

(Spoken) an stevie knows that, uh, no-bodys gonna bring

Me down.

Till I reach the highest ground.

(Spoken) cause me n stevie, see, were gonna be a sailin

On the funky sound

Till I reach the highest ground.

(Spoken) bustin out, an I'll break you out, cause I'm

Sailin on.

Till I reach the highest ground

(Spoken)just, uh, sailin on sailin on the higher ground

Till I reach the highest ground
