Hey baby, what'cha know good
  I'm just gettin' back, but you knew I would
  War is hell, when will it end,
  When will people start gettin' together again
  Are things really gettin' 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,
  Oh ya, what's happening my man
  Are they still gettin' 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
  Ah what's happening brother
  What's happening my man
  Ah what's happening brother
  What's been shaken up and down the line
  I want to know cause I'm slightly behind the time.
