Think of your fellow man, lend him a helping hand
Put a little love in your heart
You see, it's getting late, so please don't hesitate
Put a little love in your heart

And the world will be a better place
I say this world's gonna be a better place for you and me
You just wait, wait and see

Another day goes by, and still the children cry
Put a little love in your heart
If you want the world to know, we won't let hatred grow
Put a little love in your heart

And the world will be a better place
I know this world will be a better place for you and for me
You just wait, wait and see and see
Wait and see

Stop and look around and when you're down
Just put a little, take a little, give a little
Put a little, take a little, give a little, put a little
Put a little love in your heart
I hope when you decide that kindness be your guide
Just give it, take it, cherish it, you can spare it
Put a little love, put a little love, put a little love in your heart
And the world will be a better place
I know it gotta will be a better place for you and for me
You just wait and wait and see

Oh love, love, love make this world go 'round
Love, love, love make this world go 'round
So give it, give it, give it, give it, give it, give it
Put the love in your heart
And the world gotta be a better place, I know
Gotta be a better place better place for you and for me
You just wait, wait and see and see
Wait and see

Love gonna make this world go 'round
Love gonna make this world go 'round
So give little, take a little, share a little, spare a little
Put a little L-O-V-E in your heart
And this world will be a better place I know
Gotta be a better place for you and for me
You just wait, wait and see and see
Love gotta make this world go 'round
Yes, love gonna make this world go 'round

It's only a four letter word, ladies and gentleman
But such a beautiful word
If we only use the world right
It's so simple, all you gotta do is just
Put a little love in your heart
