The World Song versuri

Versuri Petula Clark – The World Song lyrics

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, its 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.
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, 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…
