Musicroom – Sing Middlesbrough Lyrics


One People (Shoulder to Shoulder)
The new moon is rising, the day passed and gone
The red sky is calling us to rise up in song
Each side of the ocean and up to the sun
When our voices they rise may we rise up as one

Chorus
Shoulder to shoulder, one people we stand
All of us equal all over this land
When we are united we shine like a star
For we are one people, one people we are.

Never mind your colour boys, girls never mind your creed
Who that you pray to, the books that you read
Speak words that unite us and not that divide
For the sake of humanity put difference aside

Never mind your religion its what side your on
Its not how you sing it’s the words in your song
In the garden of peace we are planting the seed
Will your crop be bitter or will your crop be sweet

There’s Mick here from Mayo, can sing a fine song
There’s Ibram from Pakistan and Harry from Hong Kong
There’s as bonny lass from Durham and a lad from Yorkshire
And we are one people, one people we are.
