On a hilltop in Italy

We assembled young people

From all over the world

To bring you this message

From Coca-Cola Bottlers

All over the world

It's the real thing - Coke.

And they sang...



I'd like to buy the world a home

And furnish it with love

Grow apple trees and honey bees

And snow white turtle doves.



Chorus:

I'd like to teach the world to sing

In perfect harmony

I'd like to buy the world a Coke

And keep it company

That's the real thing.



(Repeat chorus)

I'd like to teach the world to sing

In perfect harmony

I'd like to buy the world a Coke

And keep it company

That's the real thing



Chorus 2:

What the world wants today

Coca-Cola (background)

Is the real thing



(Repeat chorus 2)

What the world wants today

Coca-Cola (background)

Is the real thing



I'd like to teach the world to sing

Sing with me (background)

In perfect harmony

I'd like to buy the world a Coke

And keep it company

That's the real thing



(Repeat chorus)

I'd like to teach the world to sing

In perfect harmony

I'd like to buy the world a Coke

And keep it company

That's the real thing.



(Chorus 2)

What the world wants today

Coca-Cola (background)

Is the real thing



(Repeat chorus 2)

What the world wants today

Coca-Cola (background)

Is the real thing
