One World

This song was first released on the one world album. it is the only album it has been released on.



Don't want to live in new york city, man

Don't want to live in tokyo

I want to stay in my own village, man

Is nowhere else i need to go

Is nothing that i want for myself

That i don't want for everyone

To work in peace to live in freedom

To look and never see a gun



Why are you calling this the third world

I only know that it is my world

Maybe someday it can be our world

Can you imagine one world, one world



My heart it hurts more than my belly

So hard to live in poverty

I want to work for my own living, man

Don't want someone to care for me

Don't want to speak to revolution

It starts to sounding like a fight

I give myself to evolution

One world will make it be all right



Why are you calling this the third world

I only know that it is my world

Maybe someday it can be our world

Can you imagine one world, one world



This world is made for everybody

This life is gift for everyone

This earth is bound to keep on turning

This day is flowers in the sunshine, sunshine



Why are you calling this the third world

I only know that it is my world

Maybe someday it will be our world

Can you imagine someday one world, one world



Why are you calling this the third world

I only know that it is my world

Maybe someday it can be our world

Can you imagine one world, one world
