Across the Nation Lyrics by Natalie Cole

Happy Love

0

Come on, people, hey, everybody
We're gonna try to make the world better
Starting tonight, doin' it right
We're gonna spread love across the nation
Across the nation

Hey, everybody
Tell your sister and your brother
Opportunity is knocking
You know it's time to have each other

Come on, people, hey, everybody
We're gonna try to make the world better
Starting tonight, doin' it right
We're spreadin' love all across the nation
Across the nation

Now you should be dancin' and singing
You should be havin' yourself a good ol' time
Forget about your problems
Forget about your job
Give yourself a little peace of mind, come on

Come on, people, hey, everybody
We're gonna try to make the world better
Starting tonight, doin' it right
(I'm talkin' to you)
We're gonna spread love across the nation
(Don't you miss the train goin' across the nation)
Across the nation

It don't really matter
If you don't have no money at all
I, I, I don't care who you are, what you do
Just join in, come on now, have yourself a ball
Come on

Come on, people, hey, everybody
(Hey, hey, hey)
We're gonna try to make the world better
(I said, hey, hey, hey)
Starting tonight, doin' it right
(Come on, I'm talkin' to you)
We're spreading love all across the nation
(Here's where we're gonna go!)
All across the nation

We're gonna take it to Chicago
Maybe we'll take it down to the Gulf of Mexico
We're gonna go to San Diego
We're goin' all the way till we get to L.A
Hit the street with the beat

Come on, people, hey, everybody
(Come on, I said, hey, hey, hey)
We're gonna try to make the world better
Starting tonight, the time is right
We're gonna spread love across the nation
All across the nation, sing!

Hey, everybody, hey, everyone
(Hey)
We're gonna party, we're havin' big fun
(I said, hey, hey, hey)
Hey, everybody, hey, everyone
(Come on)
We're gonna party, we're havin' big fun

Come on, people, hey, everybody
(I'm talkin' to, you right now)
We're gonna try to make the world better
(You gotta)
Starting tonight, doin' it right
(Start tonight, do it right)
We're gonna spread love across the nation
(Spreading love)
Across the nation, whoo!

Hey, everybody, hey, everyone
(Sing, yeah)
We're gonna party, we're havin' big fun
(I said, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Hey, everybody, hey, everyone
We're gonna party, we're havin' big fun

Hey, everybody, hey, everyone
We're gonna party, we're havin' big fun
Hey, everybody, hey, everyone
We're gonna party, we're havin' big fun

Hey, everybody, hey, everyone
(Across the nation)
We're gonna party, we're havin' big fun
(All across the nation)
Hey, everybody, hey, everyone
(Across the nation)
We're gonna party, we're havin' big fun
(All across the nation)

Hey, everybody, hey, everyone
We're gonna party, we're havin' big fun
Hey, everybody, hey, everyone
(Across the nation)
We're gonna party, we're havin' big fun
(All across the nation)

Hey, everybody, hey, everyone
(Across the nation)
We're gonna party, we're havin' big fun
(All across the nation)
Hey, everybody, hey, everyone
We're gonna party, we're havin' big fun

Hey, everybody, hey, everyone
(Across the nation)
We're gonna party, we're havin' big fun
(All across the nation)
Hey, everybody, hey, everyone
(All across the nation)
We're gonna party, we're havin' big fun
(All across the nation...)
