If I Ruled The World
(Leslie Bricusse/Cyril Ornadel)
If I ruled the world
Every day would be
The first day of Spring
Every heart would have
A new song to sing
And we'd sing of the joy
Every morning would bring
If I ruled the world
Every man would be
As free as a bird
Every voice would be
A voice to be heard
Take my word
We would treasure each day
That occurred
My world would be
A beautiful place
Where we would weave
Such a wonderful dream
My world would wear
A smile on its face
Like the man in the moon
When the moon beams
If I ruled the world
Every man would say
The world was his friend
There'd be happiness
That no man could end
No my friend
Not if I ruled the world
Every head
Would be held up high
There'd be sunshine
In everyone's sky
If day ever dawned
When I ruled the world
If I ruled the world

M: Keep on lovin' me honey, keep on lovin' me true
T: Baby, I'm gonna love you no matter what you do
M: Just so long as I can have it all, nothin' but you
BOTH: So don't you take your love, don't take it away from me
T: 'Cause I would stop right where I stand
M: I'd just be afraid of a man
BOTH: Don't you take your love, don't take it away from me
'Cause if you leave you might as well take the air I breathe
M: Keep on lovin' me honey, don't you go nowhere
