The world is cold and times are bad Every time I think about it, it makes me sad War and drugs are everywhere And it`s getting so hard to breathe the air But it doesn't have to be like this All the rancor and bitterness If we can just open our eyes We can make this world a paradise Someday We`ll live as one family in perfect harmony Someday If we all pull together we will all be free Someday (someday!) [x3] Free from the pressure and the prejudice (Free from oppression and prejudice) We can change it all with tenderness There`ll be no void between black and white We`ll be able to walk the streets at night I won`t be fooled while someone dies of starvation The whole world will be my nation We will walk hand in hand I`ll go to South Africa and be called woman Someday We`ll live as one family in sweet harmony Someday If we all pull together we will all be free Mmmm, someday We`ll all be free - mmmm, you and me Someday (someday!) [x3] We will all be free, (someday) free, free! Someday! I want to be Someday! Free! Someday! Free! Someday! [x2] Someday! (someday) [x2] Someday! Someday we`ll all be free...[x2] Hmm Someday [x6] We`ll all be free... Hey I want to be free, free, free! There`ll be no ghettos, no addiction All today`s troubles will seem like fiction We will walk hand-in-hand I`ll go to South Africa and be called woman Someday (someday!) [x2] Hey, I want to be Someday (someday!) Free! Someday... [repeat to end]
