If I Ruled the World

(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

If I ruled the world

Everyday 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

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Where we would weave such wonderful dreams

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

My world would wear a smile on its face

Like the man in the moon has

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 rule the world

Every head would be held up high

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

There'd be sunshine in everyone's sky

(Ooh)

If the day ever dawned

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

When I ruled the world

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
