Buy The World A Round

I'm just a country boy with a simple song

Wondering, "Why can't we all just get along?"

I know people are crazy, hell, I am too

Today, this hit me while watching the news

If I could buy the world a round or two

We'd be laughing and drinking, might be whiskey wishful thinking

But if I could buy the world a round or three

There wouldn't be a heart or glass half-empty

And at least for a while, we'd all share a smile

This honky tonk could be our common ground

If I could buy the world a round

Well, the cowboys and bikers, the rednecks and hippies

The saints and the sinners, the righties and lefties

I'd bring 'em all together, I'd show 'em a good time

They'd probably give me that Nobel Peace Prize

If I could buy the world a round or two

We'd be laughing and drinking, might be whiskey wishful thinking

But if I could buy the world a round or three

There wouldn't be a heart or glass half-empty

And at least for a while, we'd all share a smile

This honky tonk could be our common ground

If I could buy the world a round

It's gonna be one heck of a tab buying a couple billion beers

I might need a loan from y'all, cheers

If I could buy the world a round or two

We'd be laughing and drinking, might be whiskey wishful thinking

But if I could buy the world a round or three

There wouldn't be a heart or glass half-empty

And at least for a while, we'd all share a smile

This honky tonk could be our common ground

And we could all sing along to a Willie Nelson song

We'd throw 'em back instead of throwing down

If I could buy the world a round or two

Yeah, if I could buy the world a round or three, or four

Yeah, if I could buy the world a round
