The World Needs a Melody Songtext
von Johnny Cash

The world needs a tune that it can hum
The world needs a guitar that it can strum
The world needs a melody that it can sing, sing, sing, sing
Let′s all sing together

In the sweet bye and bye
We shall meet on that beautiful shore, mmm together

The world needs a bell that it can chime
The world needs a drum to keep the time
The world needs a melody that it can sing, sing, sing, sing
Let's all sing together


Gonna lay down my burden, down by the riverside
Together

The world needs a reason to clap its hands
The world needs a leader for its band
The world needs a melody that it can sing, sing, sing, sing
Let′s all sing together

Give me that old time religion, give me that old time religion
Together

In the sweet (gonna lay down my burden, gimme that old time religion)
In the sweet (gonna lay down my burden, gimme that old time religion)
In the sweet (gonna lay down my burden, gimme that old time religion)
In the sweet (gonna lay down my burden, gimme).
