Now the world don't move to the beat of just one drum

What might be right for you may not be right for some

A man is born he's a man of means

Then along come two they got nothing but their jeans

But they got diff'rent strokes

It takes diff'rent strokes

It takes diff'rent strokes to move the world

Everybody's got a special kind of story

Everybody finds a way to shine

It don't matter that you got not a lot so what

They'll have theirs and you'll have yours and I'll have mine

And together we'll be fine

Cause it takes diff'rent strokes to move the world yes it does

It takes diff'rent strokes to move the world
