As originally recorded by THE KINGSTON TRIO:


Love is but the song we sing and fear's the way we die
You can make the mountains ring or make the angels cry
Know the dove is on the wing and you need not know why
C'mon people now, smile on your brother
Hey, let's get together and love one another right now

Some will come and some will go, and we shall surely pass
When the one who left us here returns for us at last
We are but a moments sunlight fading on the grass
C'mon people now, smile on your brother
Hey, let's get together, try to love one another right now

If you heard the song I sing,  then you must understand
You hold the key to love and fear all in your trembling hand
One one key unlocks them both you know, and it's at your command
C'mon people now, smile on your brother
Hey, let's get together, try and love one another right now
Let's get together and love one another right now
C'mon people and love one another right now

As recorded by THE YOUNGBLOODS:


Love is but the song we sing and fear's the way we die
You can make the mountains ring or make the angels cry
Know the dove is on the wing and you need not know why
C'mon people now, smile on your brother
Everybody get together, try to love one another right now

Some may come and some may go, we will surely pass
When the one that left us here returns for us at last
We are but a moments sunlight fading in the grass
C'mon people now, smile on your brother
Everybody get together, try to love one another right now

C'mon people now, smile on your brother
Everybody get together, try to love one another right now

(Instrumental Break)

C'mon people now, smile on your brother
Everybody get together, try to love one another right now

If you hear the song I sing, you will understand
You hold the key to love and fear all in your trembling hand
Just one key unlocks them both it's there at your command
C'mon people now, smile on your brother
Everybody get together, try to love one another right now

C'mon people now, smile on your brother
Everybody get together, try to love one another right now

I said c'mon people now, smile on your brother
Everybody get together, try to love one another right now
Right now
Right now!
