I'd like to build the world a home
And furnish it with love.
Grow apple trees and honey bees
And snow white turtledoves.

I'd like to teach the world to sing
In perfect harmony
And I'd like to hold it in my arms
And keep it company.

I'd like to see the world for once
All standing hand in hand
And hear them echo through the hills,
"Ah, peace throughout the land."

That's the song I hear, sing it along.
Let the world sing today, over and over.

I'd like to teach the world to sing
In perfect harmony.
