Oh, knuckle down, love his skin It doesn't matter what color skin he's locked in Knuckle down, knuckle down and love that skin Knuckle down, love his race It doesn't matter if you win or lose a little face Knuckle down and love that race Because one bright morning The world might end with a big bang, big bang And you'll never ever get yourself another chance So put aside the hoodoo and some of the voodoo About people being different They're not so different Take them by the arms and run to the street Take a little drum to supply some beat Soon the whole world will be up on it's feet and dancing For my sake, won't you put your knuckles down, boys? Mine, mine For my sake, won't you put you knuckles down, boys? Oys, oys Knuckle down, love her skin It doesn't matter what color skin she's locked in Knuckle down, knuckle down and love that skin Knuckle down, love her race It doesn't matter if you win or lose a little face Knuckle down and love that race B-b-because, one bright morning you just might wake When the coin drops, coin drops Even though you think that love is such a corny thing You can burst the bubble, it's full up with trouble Says that people always got to be fighting, not right Take them by the arms and run to the fields Blow on your horn until Jericho yields Soon the whole world will lay down swords and shields For singing For my sake, won't you put your knuckles down, boys? Mine, mine For my sake, won't you put you knuckles down? Whoa Take them by the arms and run to the streets Take a little drum to kick up some beat Soon the whole world will be up on it's feet and d-d-dancing For my sake, won't you put your knuckles down, boys? Mine, mine For my sake, won't you put your knuckles down, boys? Mine, mine For my sake, won't you put your knuckles down?
