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

And the world (the world) will be a better place
And the world (the world) will be a better place
For you (for you) and me (and me)
You just wait (just wait) and see

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

And the world (the world) will be a better place
And the world (the world) will be a better place
For you (for you) and me (and me)
You just wait (just wait) and see

Take a good look around and if you're lookin' down
Just put a little love in your heart (come put it in your heart)
I hope when you decide kindness will be your guide
Put a little love in your heart
And the world (the world) will be a better place
Yes, the world (the world) will be a better place
For you (for you) and me (and me)
Why don't you just wait (just wait) just wait and see, come on now
(Put a little love in your heart)
It won't hurt, no no
(Put a little love in your heart)
Ain't no harm now
(Put a little love in your heart)
Say something nice to your neighbor this morning
(Put a little love in your heart)
Tell your children you love them this morning, come one
(Put a little love in your heart)
Put a little love in your heart, oh yeah
