What the World Needs Now:Jackie DeShannon. #7 in 1965 for DeShannon. Several others have recorded it since. What the world needs now is love, sweet love, It's the only thing that there's just too little of. What the world needs now is love, sweet love, No, not just for some, but for everyone. #2. Lord, we don't need another mountain, There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb. There are oceans and rivers enough to cross, Enough to last, till the end of time. #3. Lord, we don't need another meadow, There are cornfields and wheat fields enough to grow, There are sunbeams and moonbeams enough to shine, Oh, listen, Lord, if you want to know. REPEAT #3. A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
