Текст песни If I Ruled The World - Live At Dallas Memorial Auditorium / 1968 - James Brown

If I ruled the world, every day would be like 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
Do you know 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 when the moon beams

If I ruled the world, every man would say the world was his friend
Do you know, there′d be happiness that no man could end
No my friend, not if I ruled the world

So hold your, hold your head up high
Let the sun shine in everyone's sky
Oh, oh, each day will never dawn
When I rule the world
