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 and show ’em a good time
They’d probably give 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
