I'm Gonna Write A Song

Folks sit around with their face in a frown and gape about the way things they are

They're happy to receive but they hardly ever want to give

I'm so tired of complaining and so in the time remaining

I'm gonna do my best to make the world a better place to live

I'm gonna write a song that the whole wide world can sing

It's gonna be about sunshine and praise every living thing

It's gonna be about love the one thing the world needs a lot more of

I'm gonna write a song that the whole wide world can sing

Our fourfathers had only faith in God and they willed to make the nation strong

So the old time religion could help 'em find a better way

We need more soul saving and a lot more people flag waving

And there's no better time for us to start than today

I'm gonna write a song...

I'm gonna write a song...
