Tell me, good people
What do you, what do you want to know
Tell me, good people
How should it, how should it, should it go

It's a plain and sane and simple melody
Means the same to you
Means the same to me
It's a plain and sane and simple melody
Brings a song to you
Brings some joy to me

Tell me, good people
What do you, what do you want to know
Tell me, good people
How should it, how should it, should it go

I see the children as they dance around
And I see their feet
They barely touch the ground
And they hear and learn the chorus of the song
And they bring their friends
To softly sing along

It's a plain and sane and simple melody
Means the same to you
Means the same to me
It's a plain and sane and simple melody
Brings a song to you
Brings some joy to me

It's a plain and sane and simple melody
Means the same to you
Means the same to me
It's a plain and sane and simple melody
Brings a song to you
Brings some joy to me

It's a plain and sane and simple melody
Means the same to you
Means the same to me
It's a plain and sane and simple melody
Brings a song to you
Brings some joy to me
