Do Unto Others

Billy Bragg

Band/Artist: Billy Bragg

Album: Tooth & Nail

In the Bible, we are told
God gave Moses in the days of old
Ten great Commandments
For his people to hold true

But the greatest Commandment of all
Is in the book of Luke, as I recall
Do unto others as you would have them do to you
Do unto others as you would have them do to you

Now baby you don't believe
In the story of Adam and Eve
Who called up on science
To prove it's all untrue

But in the cold light of the day
Peaceful words still point the way
Do unto others as you would have them do to you
Do unto others as you would have them do to you

So just lift up your eyes
Don't pass by on the other side
Don't be bound by what you think others may do
Put just a little bit of faith
And that's all it really takes
Do unto others as you would have them do to you
Do unto others as you would have them do to you

Now the way the world is run
Too many people looking after number one
Don't seem to notice
The damage that they do

No, it's not widely understood
There is, there is a greater good
Do unto others as you would have them do to you
Do unto others as you would have them do to you
