If I could rule the world for only a day
change the course of human events to go the other way.

A life of love, what a joy it would be
peace through the land America would truly be free.

In the course throughout time
living without fear, no more war, no more crime.

One voice to stand for right, it might take a year,
loving one another, living in cheer

people would live a different way,
if I ruled the world for only a day.
