[Chorus]
People all over the world (Hit by it)
Join hands (Join)
Start a love train (You)
Love train (And you)
People all over the world (All over, nah)
Join hands (Love right)
Start a love train (Love right)
Love train
[Verse 1]
The next stop that we make will be England
Tell all the folks in Russia, and China, too
Don't you know that it's time to get on board?
And let this train keep on riding, riding on through
(Well, well)

People all over the world (We don't need nobody)
Join hands (Come on)

Love train (Take it, come on)
People all over the world (Right)

Start a love train (Come on)
Love train
[Verse 2]
All of you brothers over in Africa
Tell all the folks in Egypt, and Israel, too
Please don't miss this train at the station
'Cause if you miss it, I feel sorry, sorry for you
