In a dreamy little country There's a sleepy Sunday school Where the school man and a beller Teach a sleepy golden rule But the children were all waiting To hear the church bell ring They had their own religion And all they had to do Was sing it to the world Boom sha-la-la-lo They will sing to you Boom sha-la-la-lo La-la-la-la-laaaaa Boom sha-la-la-lo They will sing to you Boom sha-la-la-lo La-la-la-la-laaaaa I sing this song of love to you So war might pass behind And guns and planes and army trains Left rusting in the line And all the world is waiting For this very special day When all the children will join hands And gladly show the way Singing Boom sha-la-la-lo They will sing to you Boom sha-la-la-lo La-la-la-la-laaaaa Dumfy dumfy do-day Through your cannons way Dumfy dumfy do-day O-daaaay Boom sha-la-la-lo They will sing to you Boom sha-la-la-lo La-la-la-la-laaaaa
