The Hollies

The Hollies are an English pop group formed in Manchester in the early 1960s, although the majority of the band members came from towns in East Lancashire. Known for their distinctive vocal harmony style, they became one of the leading British groups of the 1960s and early 1970s. They enjoyed considerable popularity in many countries, although they did not achieve major US chart success until 1966. They had 30 charting singles on the UK Singles Chart, and 21 on the Billboard Hot 100, with songs including, "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother", "Carrie Anne", "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress" and "The Air That I Breathe". more »

With Mr. Soul or King Creole 
You gotta go with the man in the band 
He'll be your guide 
Singing la, la, la, la 
But what makes Mr. Politic 
A lot of words another trick 
Turn peace into war 
Singing ha ah

Ooh, it's not the way we want it 
Not the way at all 
Not the way to change our minds 
Our backs up against the wall 

The boys in the band all live in harmony 
For life's a poem and we can make it rhyme 
The boys in the band all live in harmony 
Let's get it together before we go down, down, down 

I don't want to theorise it 
Just hope people realise 
The simple melody can free your soul 
And let you be a man what you are 
And fly la, la, la 
But every back street slum where pushers push and hookers hook 
Just won't set you free with ha ah 

Ooh, it's not the way we want it 
Not the way at all 
Not the way to change our minds 
Our backs up against the wall 

The boys in the band all live in harmony 
For life's a poem and we can make it rhyme 
The boys in the band all live in harmony 
Let's get it together before we go down, down, down 

The boys in the band all live in harmony 
The boys in the band all live in harmony 

Ooh, it's not the way we want it 
Not the way at all 
Not the way to change our minds 
Our backs up against the wall 

The boys in the band all live in harmony 
The boys in the band all live in harmony 

The boys in the band all live in harmony 
The boys in the band all live in harmony 

The boys in the band all live in harmony 
The boys in the band all live in harmony
