There was peace, peace and love, oh yeah

There was peace, peace and love
So please keep it up my brothers
And let peace and love abide, oh yeah
So please keep it up my sisters
And let peace and love abide

Let's keep it up, keep it up, oh my brothers
Don't break it up youth-man, oh no-no-no
Don't break it up, break it up, oh no-no-no
