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 wonderful dreams 
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 the day ever dawned when I ruled the world
