Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We got to give a little love, have a little hope
Make this world a little better
Oh, whoa
Oh, whoa
[Verse 2]
Livin' in this crazy world
So caught up in the confusion
Nothing is makin' sense
For me and you
[Verse 3]
Maybe we can find a way
There's got to be solution
How to make a brighter day
What do we do?
[Verse 4]
We got to give a little love, have a little hope
Make this world a little better
Try a little more, harder than before
Let's do what we can do together
[Verse 5]
Oh, whoa
We can really make it better, yeah
Oh, whoa, la-la-la
Only if we try
[Verse 6]
Got the words on our minds
Got the troubles on our shoulders
Sometimes, it seems so much
What we go through
[Verse 7]
Maybe if we take the time
Time to understand each other
You can learn to make it right
What do we do?
[Verse 8]
We got to give a little love, have a little hope
Make this world a little better
Try a little more, harder than before
Let's do what we can do together
[Verse 9]
Oh, whoa
We can really make it better, yeah
Oh, whoa, la-la-la
Only if we try
[Verse 10]
Oh, whoa, la-la-la (Give a little)
Oh, ah, oh-oh-oh
Oh, whoa, la-la-la
Only if we try
[Verse 11]
If everybody took somebody by the hand
(Come on, take him by the hand)
Then maybe everyone could learn to love and understand
[Verse 12]
Oh, whoa
We can really make it better, yeah
Oh, whoa, la-la-la
Only if we try
Sing it
[Verse 13]
Oh, whoa, la-la-la
We can really make it better, yeah
Oh, whoa
Only if we try
[Verse 14]
We got to give a little love, have a little hope
Make this world a little better (A better world)
Try a little more, harder than before
Let's do what we can do together
[Verse 15]
Oh, whoa
We can really make it better, yeah
Oh, whoa
Only if we try
[Verse 16]
We got to give a little love, have a little hope
Make this world a little better (Make it a better world)
Try a little more, harder than before
Let's do what we can do together
[Verse 17]
Oh, whoa
We can really make it better, yeah
Oh, whoa, la-la-la
Only if we try
[Verse 18]
We got to give a little love
Have a little hope
Make this a little better
We can do it together
Together
[Verse 19]
Give a little love, give a little love
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Sing for Babylon, sing for Babylon
Only if we try
[Verse 20]
Give a little love, have a little hope
Make this world a little better (Make it a better world)
Try a little more, harder than before
Let's do what we can do together
