That's All This Old World Needs

That's all this ol' world needs, That's all this ol' world needs . . . A little more love an' sweet devotion, A little less hate an' wild commotion, That's all this world needs . . . That's all this ol' world needs, That's all this ol' world needs . . . A little more truth an' no more lies, And only rain fallin' from the skies, That's all this world needs . . . A little less envy, a little less greed, A little more lookin' to your brothers need, A little more laughter, a little more song, An' a world where people know right from wrong . . . That's all this ol' world needs, That's all this ol' world needs . . . The innocence of children everywhere, The peacefulness of an evening prayer, That's all this world needs . . . < instrumental break > A little less envy, a little less greed, A little more lookin' to your brothers need, A little more laughter, a little more song, An' a world where people know right from wrong . . . That's all this ol' world needs, That's all this ol' world needs . . . The innocence of children everywhere, The peacefulness of an evening prayer, That's all this world needs . . . < repeat last verse > That's all this world needs . . .
