The World Song

Hey, don't you think it's time that we had a party? Wouldn't you agree we all need a good time? We could have the neighbors in for a drink And lay a little food on too You could ask the Joneses, I could ask the Thompsons Stuart from the store and don't forget the Johnsons And what about the man who stands on the corner? He must have a tale or two to tell Wouldn't it be nice to buy out the Fillmore And fill it with our friends? And then if there's still more room We could ask the folks from the city To come along and feel at home And if the ragged gypsy danced with the soldier Think of all the things the soldier could learn And think of all the things the doctor could tell the priest There's a story to be told Listen Sounds so new, in truth, it's old Listen Hey, maybe we should give an open invitation We could have a friend from every single nation We could ask the friends to bring along a friend Anyone who wants to come will be welcome Anyone who wants to make with the music Is going to be allowed to play what he wants to Anyone who wants to sing us a song can bring us a song And sing it if he wants to Maybe we could hear the voices of China Sharing a harmony with Carolina Africa could take the bass with the Asians Melody promotes our East-West relations Russia and the USA would be singing Everybody's bells and hearts would be ringing We could get the song to go on forever If everybody in the world sang together There's a meaning oh so clear Listen Notes as old as life is dear Listen Hey, maybe we could hear the voices of China Sharing a harmony with Carolina (make such sweet music) Africa could take the bass with the Asians Melody promotes our East-West relations (together, if you come) Russia and the USA would be singing (with your heart) Everybody's bells and hearts would be ringing (in your hand) We could get the song to go on forever If everybody in the world sang together, hey For we could make such sweet music together If you come with your heart in your hand For we could make such sweet music together If you come with your heart in your hand For we could make such sweet music together If you come with your heart in your hand For we could make such sweet music together If you come with your heart in your hand For we could make such sweet music together If you come with your heart in your hand
