If I ruled the world
every day would be
the first day of Spring
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
Take my word
We would treasure each day
that occurred

My world would be
a beautiful place
where we would weave
such a wonderful dream
My world would wear
a smile on its face
like the man in the moon
when the moon beams

If I ruled the world
every man would say
The world was his friend
There'd be happiness
that no man could end
No my friend
not if I ruled the world
Every head
would be held up high
There'd be sunshine
in everyone's sky
if day ever dawned

When I ruled the world
If I ruled the world
