Teach the children love within the music
A little hope, so they'll grow strong
Teach them the right, cause they know wrong
Little children love to sing to our music
So won't you sing them songs of life
Instead of building wars and strife
Love the youth
Teach them truth
Make them understand
They are weak and they seek
Loving guiding hands
For so long you've been playing songs
All along you've been playing wrongs
Little babes will have twisted minds
When the father will refuse to shine (refuse to shine)
Won't shine
Won't shine (no no no)
Won't shine until you
Teach the children love within the music
A little hope, so they'll grow strong
Teach them the right, cause they know wrong
Little children love to sing with our music
So won't you sing them songs of life
Instead of building war and strife
Love the youth
Teach them truth
Make them understand
They are weak and they seek
Loving guiding hands
All so long you've been playing song
All along you've been playing wrong
Little babe will have twisted mind
Then the father will refuse to shine (shine)
Won't shine (won't shine)
Won't shine (won't shine)
He won't shine until you
Teach the children love within your music
A little hope, so they'll grow strong
Teach them the right, cause they know wrong
Hey little children love to sing to our music
So won't you sing them songs of life
Instead of building war and strife
Why won't you sing them songs of life
Won't you sing them songs of love
Why won't you sing them songs of life
Won't you sing them songs of love
Why won't you sing them songs of life
Won't you sing them songs of love (Sing them songs, sing them songs)
