Píseň: Everyday People

Interpret:
Aretha Franklin
Album:
What You See Is What You Sweat
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 can't accept the green one 
For living with a fat one trying to be a skinny one 
And different strokes for different folks 
And so on and so on and scooby dooby doo-bee 
Oh sha sha - we got to live together 
I am no better and neither are you 
We are basically the same whatever we do 
You love me, you hate me you know me and then 
You can't figure out the bag l'm in 
I am everyday people, yeah yeah 
There is a long hair that doesn't accept the short hair 
Sister and brothe let's be cool with each other, ooh


And different strokes for different folks 
And so on and so on and scooby dooby doo-bee 
Oh sha sha-we got to live together 


There is a yellow one
That ain't into the red one, who don't like the black one
What about white one y'all?


And different strokes for different folks
