Songtekst
Wonderful world, beautiful people
You and your girl, things lookin' pretty
But underneath this there is a secret
That your church state won't reveal
Take a look at the world
And the state that it's in today
I am sure you'll agree
We all could make it a better way
With our love, put together
One and all learn to love each other
Instead of fussing and fighting
Cheating, backbiting
Scandalizing and hating
Yeah, talkin' 'bout a
Wonderful world, beautiful people
You and your girl, things lookin' pretty
But underneath this there is a secret
That your church state won't reveal
Man and woman, girl and boy
Let us all give a helping hand
This I know and I'm sure
That with love we all can overstand
This is our world, can't you see now?
Everyone has got to live and be free
Instead of fussing and fighting
Cheating, backbiting
Scandalizing and hating
Yeah, we can have a
Wonderful world, beautiful people
You and your girl, things lookin' pretty
But underneath this there is a secret
That your church state won't reveal
(No they won't reveal...)
Ooh
(No they won't...)
That's what I'm saying, talkin' 'bout a
Wonderful world, beautiful people
It's you and it's I
(Wonderful world, beautiful people)
Talkin' 'bout you and I
(Wonderful world, beautiful people)
The people got the power, change your hour
(Wonderful world, beautiful people)
The people got the power, change your hour
(Wonderful world, beautiful people)
It's not your brother, it's not your dove
(Wonderful world, beautiful people)
It's not your preacher, it's not your teacher
(Wonderful world, beautiful people)
It's you and I, you and I
(Wonderful world, beautiful people)
You and I
(Wonderful world, beautiful people)
