Kenny Rogers Turn This World Around Lyrics

Once upon a time in a city made of gold
Streets were full of dreams
The air was full of hope

But somewhere in the midnight
Beneath the crooked moon
The children stopped believin'
So the flowers never bloomed

The elders lost their sanity
Mothers lost their smiles
Fathers chased the money got one too many miles

Water turned to whiskey
The visionaries, blind
While the people in the picture box
Were poisoning their minds - their minds, their minds

Let's burn this bridge and ride this river to another town
Hold up a holy flame
To all the rain that's pourin' down
Well hatred is the seed
The Devil planted in the ground
Our beating hearts are singin' now
For love to turn this world around
Oh turn this world around
Oh turn this world around

Let's dust off all the rust
It starts from diamonds on the sea
Ring the bells in the cathedrals
Rejoice for what's redeemed

Let's lock and load with truth
And blow up the lies All of us are guilty, we have no alibi

Let's burn this bridge and ride this river to another town
Hold up a holy flame
To all the rain that's pourin' down
Well hatred is the seed
The Devil planted in the ground
Our beatin' hearts are singin' now
For love to turn this world around
Oh turn this world around
Oh turn this world around
Woah turn this world around
Oh turn this world around
Woah turn this world around
Woah turn this world around

Let's burn this bridge and ride this river to another town
Hold up the holy flame
To all the rain that's pourin' down
Well hatred is the seed
The Devil planted in the ground
Our beatin' hearts are singin' out - singin' out
Our beatin' hearts are singin' out
For love to turn this world around
Oh turn this world around
Turn this world around
Oh turn this world around
Turn this world around
Oh turn this world around
Oh
Woah, turn this world around
