Ain't gon' say it will be morning
Ain't gon' pick no time of day
It's gonna hit you without warning
And simply carry you away
It's gon' be so doggone easy
You know you knew about it all the time
It will answer all the questions
That were playing with your mind
It's the Third World Revolution
And we're standing at the gate
You can add to the solution
While the world is changing shape

Ain't gon' say it will be evening
In time, it all makes sense to you
Just takes working, working and believing
To see the whole Third World come true
We gon' take this world through changes
Not the other way around
See, the world now sure 'nough rearranging
And can't nobody stop us now
It's the Third World Revolution
And we're standing at the gate
You can add to the solution
While the world is changing shape

Ain't gon' say it will be morning
Ain't gon' pick no time of day
It's gonna hit you without warning
Simply carry you away
We gon' take this world through changes
Not the other way around
See, the world is sure 'nough rearranging
Can't nobody stop us now
It's the Third World Revolution
And we're standing at the gate
You can make your contribution
While the world is changing shape

It's the Third World Revolution
And we're standing at the gate
You can make your contribution
While the world is changing shape
It's the Third World Revolution
And we're standing at the gate
You can add to the solution
