If I Ruled the World Songtext
von James Brown

If I ruled the world, every day would be the first day of spring
Every voice would have a new song to sing
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 and we'd treasure each day that occurred


My world is such a beautiful place
Where we would weave and seek such wonderful dreams
My world would have a smile on its face
Like the man in the moon where 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, when I rule the world
So hold your head up high
Let the sun shine in everyone's sky
Each day will never dawn when I rule the world
