The world needs a tune that it can hum hum-hum-hum

The world needs a guitar that it can strum

World seeds a melody it can sing sing sing sing now let's all sing together

In the sweet by and by we shall meet on that beautiful shore together

World needs a bell it can chime world needs a drummer to keep the time

World seeds a melody it can sing sing sing sing now let's all sing together

Go lay down my burden down by the riverside togehter

World needs a reason to clap its hands world needs a leader for its band

World seeds a melody it can sing sing sing sing now let's all sing together

Give us that old time religion give us that old time religion together

In the sweet (go lay down my burden) that old time religion

In the sweet (go lay down my burden) that old time religion together together
