If I Ruled The World

If I ruled the world

Every day would be the first day of Spring

And 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

Why don't you take my word

We would treasure each day that occurred

My world would be a beautiful place

Where we would weave such wonderful dreams

And my world would wear a smile on its face

Like the man in the moon has when the moon beams

If I ruled the world

Every man would say the world was his friend

There'd be so much happiness that no one could end

No, my friend

Not if I ruled the world

And every man would hold his head up high

There'd be sunshine in everybody's sky

If a day ever dawned that I...

If I had anything to do with it I think it should be

If I ruled the world
