"What's Happening Brother" lyrics

Hey, baby, what you know good?
I'm just getting back, but you knew I would
War is hell, when will it end?
When will people start getting together again?
Are things really getting better like the newspaper said?
What else is new, my friend, besides what I read?

Can't find no work, can't find no job, my friend
Money is tighter than it's ever been
Say, man, I just don't understand what's going on across this land
Ah, what's happening, brother?
Yeah, what's happening? What's happening, my man?

Are they still getting down where we used to go and dance?
Will our ball club win the pennant, do you think they have a chance?
And tell me, friend, how in the world have you been?
Tell me what's out and I want to know what's in

What's the deal, man?
What's happening? What's happening, brother?
What's happening, brother?
Ah, what's happening, brother?
What's happening, my man?
Whoo, ah, ah, what's happening, brother?
Say, man, whoo, what's happening, brother?

What's been shaking up and down the line?
I want to know, because I'm slightly behind the times
