People making lists, buying special gifts,
Taking time to be kind to one and all.
It's that time of year when good friends are near,
And you wish you could give more than just presents from a store.
Why don't you give love on Christmas Day
Even the man who has everything
Would be so happy if you would bring
him love on Christmas Day,
No greater gift is there than love.
People you don't know smile and nod hello,
Everywhere there's an air of Christmas joy.
It's that once of year when the world's sincere,
And you'd like to find a way to show the things that words can't say.
Why don't you give love on Christmas Day?
The man on the street and the couple upstairs
All need to know there's someone who cares.
Give love on Christmas Day
No greater gift is there than love.
What the world needs is love
Yes, the world needs more love.
Why don't you give love on Christmas Day
Every little child on Santa's knee
Has room for your love underneath his tree
Give love on Christmas Day
No greater gift is there than love.
What the world needs is love
Yes, the world needs more love.
Taking time to be kind to one and all.
It's that time of year when good friends are near,
And you wish you could give more than just presents from a store.
Why don't you give love on Christmas Day
Even the man who has everything
Would be so happy if you would bring
him love on Christmas Day,
No greater gift is there than love.
People you don't know smile and nod hello,
Everywhere there's an air of Christmas joy.
It's that once of year when the world's sincere,
And you'd like to find a way to show the things that words can't say.
Why don't you give love on Christmas Day?
The man on the street and the couple upstairs
All need to know there's someone who cares.
Give love on Christmas Day
No greater gift is there than love.
What the world needs is love
Yes, the world needs more love.
Why don't you give love on Christmas Day
Every little child on Santa's knee
Has room for your love underneath his tree
Give love on Christmas Day
No greater gift is there than love.
What the world needs is love
Yes, the world needs more love.

You better enjoy yourself

While people are dancin'
Dancin all over the place
You shouldnt worry about things you can't control
Come on girl while the night is young
Why dont ya mix up the place, let it go

Let's have some fun
Let's have a good time you and me
Sittin there with your mouth all out
Just sweet as you can be
Why dontcha live, live the life ya got
Come on girl let's spin it
While the music's live and hot..whoo!
[Chorus]
Jackie: Baby girl I've been watchin you?
I can wipe away that frown
For you and I to get together
We can tear the house down
Or we can tear the house down
Or we can tear the whole house down..whoo!

[Chorus]
Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be alone
And you my friend will see
You've got a friend in me (you've got a friend in me)
Ben, you're always running here and there
You feel you're not wanted anywhere
If you ever look behind and don't like what you find
There's something you should know
You've got a place to go (you've got a place to go)
I used to say
I and me
Now it's us
Now it's we
(I used to say
I and me
now it's us
now it's we)
Ben, most people would turn you away
I don't listen to a word they say
They don't see you as i do
I wish they would try to
I'm sure they'd think again
If they had a friend like Ben
(a friend) like Ben
(A friend) Like Ben
We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be alone
And you my friend will see
You've got a friend in me (you've got a friend in me)
Ben, you're always running here and there
You feel you're not wanted anywhere
If you ever look behind and don't like what you find
There's something you should know
You've got a place to go (you've got a place to go)
I used to say
I and me
Now it's us
Now it's we
(I used to say
I and me
now it's us
now it's we)
Ben, most people would turn you away
I don't listen to a word they say
They don't see you as i do
I wish they would try to
I'm sure they'd think again
If they had a friend like Ben
(a friend) like Ben
(A friend) Like Ben
