What the World Needs Now Is Love - Sammy Davis, Jr.

What the world needs now is love, sweet love

It's the only thing that there's just too little of

What the world needs now is love, sweet love

No, not just for some but for everyone, for everyone

Lord, we don't need another mountain

There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb

There are oceans and rivers enough to cross till the end of time

What the world needs now is love, sweet, sweet love

It's the only thing that there's just too little of

What the world needs now is love, sweet, sweet love

No, not just for some but for everyone, for everyone

Lord, we don't need another meadow

There are cornfields and wheat fields enough to grow

There are sunbeams and moonbeams enough to shine

Oh listen, Lord, if you want to know

What the world needs now is love, sweet love

It's the only thing that there's just too little of, too little of

What the world needs now is love, sweet love, sweet love
