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

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

Oh we could make such sweet music together
If you come with your heart in your hand
(repeat & fade)
