Don't miss Alice Gerrard on Shaped by Sound, March 13 on PBS NC, YouTube and the PBS app. Get Up and Do Right lyrics: Get up in the morning and do right Don’t you get up and go and do wrong Get up in the morning and do right All day long Well, you wonder why this world’s a-goin downhill When the big wigs and politicians lie and cheat and steal And we’re doin wrong to people in the name of freedom Come on children come on now Get up in the morning and do right Don’t you get up and go and do wrong Get up in the morning and do right All day long You don’t need all the cars and toys you think you need Substitute a bit of kindliness for all the greed Sow a little happiness out in your field Come on children come on now Get up in the morning and do right Don’t you get up and go and do wrong Get up in the morning and do right All day long #PBSNC #ShapedBySound #AliceGerrard #NCMusic #ComeHearNC #NorthCarolina
