Marvin Gaye - The Onion Song

The world is just a great big onion

And hate and fear are the spices

That make you cry, oh baby

And the only way to get rid

Of this great big onion

Is to plant love seeds

Until it dies

Hey world

We got a great big job to do

Yeah, we need you

And everybody to pull us through

Oh don't you know

We got to clean up this place

And reach for a higher goal, yeah

Yes we do now

We gotta be headstrong

About rightin'the wrong

And make a lot more happy souls

Oh baby

Oh the world is just a great big onion

And I don't care

Is the face people like to wear, Oh baby

Yes it is now

And the only way to get rid

Of this great big onion

Every single soul's

Got to do their share

Tell'em'bout it, baby, uh huh

So come on

And let's knock on every door

Tell'em love is the answer

Whether they're rich or poor, oh yeah

Now we don't care what you do

How you look or you status claim, baby

No no, because brothers and sisters

From now on

Is gonna be everyone's name, oh

Now everybody

Got to plant love seeds

Come on and plant love seeds

Until it dies

The World is just a great big onion
The world is just a great big onion

And hate and fear are the spices

That make you cry, oh baby

And the only way to get rid

Of this great big onion

Is to plant love seeds

Until it dies

Hey world

We got a great big job to do

Yeah, we need you

And everybody to pull us through

Oh don't you know

We got to clean up this place

And reach for a higher goal, yeah

Yes we do now

We gotta be headstrong

About rightin'the wrong

And make a lot more happy souls

Oh baby

Oh the world is just a great big onion

And I don't care

Is the face people like to wear, Oh baby

Yes it is now

And the only way to get rid

Of this great big onion

Every single soul's

Got to do their share

Tell'em'bout it, baby, uh huh

So come on

And let's knock on every door

Tell'em love is the answer

Whether they're rich or poor, oh yeah

Now we don't care what you do

How you look or you status claim, baby

No no, because brothers and sisters

From now on

Is gonna be everyone's name, oh

Now everybody

Got to plant love seeds

Come on and plant love seeds

Until it dies

The World is just a great big onion
