I want to sing out a happy song,
clear and sweet and honest and strong.
I want to sing out a happy song
with you, you, you, you...

I want to walk down a simple road,
carrying my honest share of the load.
I want to walk down a simple road
with you, you, you, you...

I want to dance round a mighty tree,
knowing all people everywhere are free.
I want to dance round a mighty tree
with you, you, you, you...

I want to work at a useful trade,
being satisfied with the things that I made.
I want to work at a useful trade
with you, you, you, you...

I want to live in harmony,
peace, truth, love and justice to see
I want to live in sweet harmony
with you, you, you, you...

Every single one of you,
not just one, not just two,
not just a handful and not just a few,
I want to sing out with the whole crew,
every single one of you,
you, you, you, you...
