I sing a song about a man
He loved the poor, despised the plan
He tried so hard to ease their pain
Though it turned out to be in vain

Also they say, he loved the child
He saw the need in every eye
He had the blind a lot to give
Something like hope and joy to live

And sing this song of love and understanding
Peace and harmony
For everyone, for you and me
Enjoy this song of love and understanding
Or just sympathy
For everyone, for you and me
For every child and granny

I sing a song about a man
Who fought for peace and liberty

I sing a song about a man
Who fought for peace and liberty
He had no guns, nor used his hands
Only his words to understand

And so they say, some hated him
And even tried to have him killed
And when he died he said the words
Remember me and tell the world

And sing this song of love and understanding
Peace and harmony
For everyone, for you and me
And play this song of love and understanding
Or just sympathy
For everyone, for you and me
For every child and granny
