Jimmy Cliff - Wonderful World lyrics
[Jimmy Cliff - Wonderful World lyrics]
You and your girl things could be pretty
But underneath this there is a secret
That nobody can repeat - mmh
Take a look at the world and
The state that it's in today
I am sure you'll agree we all
Could make it a better way
With our love put together ev'rybody
Learn to love each other
Instead of fussing and fighting
Cheating but biting
Scandalising and hating
Baby, we could have a wonderful world
Beautiful people
You and your girl things could be pretty
But underneath this there is a secret
That nobody can repeat - yeah now
Man and woman, girl and boy
Let us try to give a helping hand
This I know and I'm sure that
The love we all could understand
This is our world, can't you see
Ev'rybody wants to live and be free
Instead of fussing and fighting
Cheating but biting
Scandalising and hating
Yeah, we could have a wonderful world
Beautiful people
You and your girl things could be pretty
But underneath this there is a secret
That nobody can repeat - mmh yeah yeah
We could have a wonderful world
Beautiful people
From 'Wonderful World, Beautiful People'
(1970)
