Lyrics
THE WORLD CAN ALWAYS USE MORE LOVE (THE CABBAGE PATCH)
words and music by Sam Cooper
The world can always use more love.
The world can always use more love.
A little seed of love was planted, and someone cared for it from the start,
And soon there was a face so helpless, looking for a place in someone's heart.
A place where each of us is different, but our needs still all the same,
Well, it once wasn't easy to find someone to love until you came,
From a silly, but wonderful, cuddly and funderful,
Magical place like the cabbage patch.
Where the only amounts of riches that count,
Are the riches of love that you can catch,
In the cabbage patch (the world can always use more love).
All the kids in the patch are pudgy, and they?re all on Santa's list.
Good little ladies and gentlemen just made to be hugged and kissed,
And they've let us in on a secret, something that can make us warm,
Love can come in all different colors and sizes and in any form,
In a silly, but wonderful, cuddly and funderful,
Magical place like the cabbage patch.
Where the only amounts of riches that count,
Are the riches of love that you can catch,
In the cabbage patch (the world can always use more love).
The world can always use more love,(vamp)
