(When the world is at peace, yeah, yeah)
(When the world is at peace)
I can see the day when it's safe to walk the streets
When we learn to care for those lost in poverty
There would be no need for our daughters and our sons
To march up and down the streets singing "We Shall Overcome"
(Do it to me now)
(When the world's at peace) when the world's at peace
Will it still be in one piece?
I pray for the day when the bombs and the bullets cease (yeah, yeah)
(When the world is at peace) come let's make a change
Or leave the world in dust
Let's be the world of love for the ones that follow us
(Do it to me now)
If we learn to love the way we learn to kill
Then love will rule the world and hate would soon be still
Some may say they love, but love's a sacrifice
Love is not a state of mind, loves a fact of life
(Do it to me now)
(When the world is at peace) hate, be still
Love, get behind me (yeah, yeah)
(When the world's at peace) peace, what we need
Ha, ha, peace is what we need now
Da, da, who's got me? Who's got me? Ha
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da-da-da
Da, da, da-yah, da, da, da, da-da, da
Da, da, da-yah, da, da, da, da-da-da
Da, da, da-yah, da, da, da-da-da
Who's got me? Who's got me? (Oh, yeah)
Got to be, peace
Da, da, da-yah, da, da, da, da-da, da (oh, yeah)
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da-da-da (oh, yeah)
Peace, yeah, peace yeah (oh, yeah)
Peace, yeah, peace yeah, da
Whoo, da, da, da
Who's got me? Got me (oh, yeah)
Got to be, huh, peace, peace (oh, yeah)
Da, da, da-yah, da, da, da, da-da, da (oh, yeah)
Da, da, da-yah, da, da, da, da-da, da (oh, yeah)
Da, da, da-yah, da, da, da, da-da, da (oh, yeah)
Da, da, da-yah, da, da, da, da-da, da (oh, yeah)
Peace, what we need (oh, yeah)
Ha, peace, what we need now (oh, yeah)
Woo-hoo, huh, yeah (oh, yeah)
Huh, huh, huh (oh, da, da)

Ooh, ooh, yeah

What we need, got to have it
