Sarah Vaughan
If I Ruled the World
[Verse 1]
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
[Hook]
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
[Verse 2]
My world would be a beautiful place
Where we would weave such wonderful dreams
My world would wear a smile on its face
Likе the man in the moon has when thе moon beams
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
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
