Sometimes this crazy world can make us all feel bad I sit and watch the news and just get mad We need to stop and smell the roses in the ground So get out today, you spread a little love around Talk to a neighbor, volunteer a favor Help out a stranger when his car's broke down Give your wife a kissin', when your kids talk, listen It makes a lovely sound, spread a little love around You know it don't take much to make somebody's day A kind word of tender touch goes a long way We can change the whole world if we start in our hometown So get out today, you spread a little love around Tell your mom you love her, bear hug your brother Treat your sister to a night out on the town Throw the ball for rover, wrestle in the clover Put a smile on that old hound, spread a little love around Slap your sweetheart's fanny, tickle on old granny Dance with the kids and act just like a clown A little tiny kiss and hug, well everybody needs that stuff Turn a frown upside down, spread a little love around When this world gets you down, spread a little love around
