Amelia:
I'd like to build the world a home
I'd like to build the world a home
And furnish it with love
Cate:
Grow apple trees and honey bees
Gwen:
I'd like to see the world for once
All standing hand in hand
Everyone:
And hear them echo through the hills
D
I'd like to teach the world to sing
E
In perfect harmony
A
I'd like to hold it in my arms
G D
And keep it company
That's the song I hear
Let the world sing today
A song of peace that echoes on
And never goes away!
He rocks in the treetop all the day long
hoppin' and a boppin' and a singin' his song.
All the little birds on Jay Bird Street
love to hear the robin go tweet tweet tweet
Rockin' Robin ....Rockin' Robin....
Blow Rockin' Robin 'cause we're really gonna rock tonight
Ev'ry little swallow, ev'ry chickadee.
Ev'ry little bird in the tall oak tree
the wise old owl, the big black crow
Flap their wings singin' "go bird, go!"
Rockin' Robin.....
A pretty little raven at the bird bandstand
taught him how to do the bop, and it was grand.
They started goin' steady and, bless my soul!
They out bopped the buzzard and the oriole!
