PEOPLE MAKE THE WORLD GO ROUND
(Thom Bell / Linda Creed)
The Stylistics - 1972


Trashmen didn't get my trash today
Oh, why? Because they want more pay
Buses on strike want a raise in fare
So they can help pollute the air

But that's what makes the world go 'round
The up and down, the carousel
Changing people, they'll go around
Go underground, young man
People make the world go 'round

Wall Street losin' dough on ev'ry share
They're blaming it on longer hair
Big men smokin' in their easy chairs
On a fat cigar without a care

But that's what makes the world go 'round 
The up and down, the carousel
Changing people, they'll go around
Go underground, young man
People make the world go 'round

instrumental break

But that's what makes the world go 'round
The up and down, the carousel
Changing people, they'll go around
Go underground, young man
People make the world go 'round

People make the world go 'round
People make the world go 'round
People make the world go 'round
FADE
People make the world go 'round
