| All the world over, | |
| So easy to see | |
| People everywhere just wanna be free | |
| Listen, please listen, | |
| That’s the way it should be | |
| There’s peace in the valley, | |
| People got to be free | |
| You should see | |
| What a lovely, lovely world this would be | |
| Everyone learned to live together, ah hah | |
| Seems to me | |
| Such an itty bitty thing should be | |
| Why can’t you and me learn to love one another? | |
| All the world over, | |
| So easy to see | |
| People everywhere just wanna be free | |
| (Wanna be free) | |
| I can’t understand it, | |
| So simple to me | |
| (It is) | |
| People everywhere just got to be free | |
| If there’s a man | |
| Who is down and needs a helpin’ hand | |
| All it takes is you to understand and | |
| To pull him through, ah hah | |
| Seems to me | |
| We got to solve it individually, ah ah | |
| And I’ll do unto you what you do to me | |
| Said, no | |
| Hear the shoutin’ from the mountains | |
| On out to the sea | |
| No two ways about it, | |
| People have to be free | |
| (They gotta be free) | |
| Ask me my opinion, | |
| My opinion will be | |
| Natural situation for a man to be free | |
| Get right on board now, huh, huh | |
| Yeah, | |
| Oh, what a feelin’s just come over me | |
| Love can move a mountain, | |
| Make a blind man see | |
| Everybody sing it now | |
| Come on let’s go see | |
| Peace in the valley now, | |
| We all can be free | |
| See that train over there? | |
| Now that’s the train of freedom | |
| It’s about to arrive any minute, now | |
| You know it’s been’a long, long overdue | |
| Look out ’cause it’s a’comin’ right on through | |
| Ha, ha, yeah, ha, ha, yeah | |
