VERSE 1

There's a whole lot of people in this old world living on nothing but hate
If things don't change around pretty soon, it's going to be too late
They're building guns and tanks, and bombs and planes, and I don't know what all,
You better listen to the people when they talk about peace,
Hear the children when they call

CHORUS

They talk about love, talk about peace, talk about a world full of happiness 
Talk about love your neighbor as yourself, talk about friendliness
Talk about do unto others, as you would have others do unto you 
And with thoughts like that running through your head
There's nothing good that you can't do

VERSE 2

Well they've got enough equipment to destroy the world, and everything that's in it
The way I got it figured it'll take a little while, about twenty-five or thirty minutes
Seems funny to me, that when you talk about peace, well you might be suspected of crime
And that the people trying hardest to save the world, Have lived here the shortest time

CHORUS

They talk about love, talk about peace, talk about a world full of happiness 
Talk about love your neighbor as yourself, talk about friendliness
Talk about do unto others, as you would have others do unto you 
And with thoughts like that running through your head
There's nothing good that you can't do


VERSE 3

There's civil war and conflict around the world - North, South, East and West.
People wherever they live have to learn that another way is best
You see the golden rule is as good right now as it was so many years ago
You've got to give love to get love, enjoy watching the children grow

CHORUS x3

There's nothing good that you can't do, (Ease off now)
Nothin' good that you can't do, (One last time)
Nothin' good that you can't do, (And that's all!)
