I'd like to build the world a home
 And furnish it with love
 Grow apple trees and honey bees
 And snow-white turtle doves
 I'd like to teach the world to sing
 In perfect harmony
 I'd like to hold it in my arms
 And keep it company
 It's the real thing
 What the world wants today
 That's the way it will stay
 With the real thing
 It's the real thing
 Won't you hear what I say?
 What the world needs today
 Is the real thing
 I'd like to see the world for once
 All standing hand in hand
 And hear them echo through the hills
 For peace throughout the land
 It's the real thing
 I'd like to teach the world to sing
 In perfect harmony
 A song of peace that echoes on
 And never goes away
 It's the real thing
 I'd like to build the world a home

 Grow apple trees and honey bees

 And keep it company
 It's the real thing...
