What a wonderful world...

Louis Armstrong (1901-1971)


I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They're really saying I love you.

I hear babies crying, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world.

  2. Ach, dat moet ik nou even kwijt;
    de WONDERFUL WORLD van Sam Cooke

    Don't know much about history
    Don't know much biology
    Don't know much about a science book
    Don't know much about the french I took

    But I do know that I love you
    And I know that if you love me too
    What a wonderful world this would be

    Don't know much about geography
    Don't know much trigonometry
    Don't know much about algebra
    Don't know what a slide rule is for

    But I do know that one and one is two
    And if this one could be with you
    What a wonderful world this would be

    Now I don't claim to be an "A" student
    But I'm trying to be
    So maybe by being an "A" student baby
    I can win your love for me

    Don't know much about history
    Don't know much biology
    Don't know much about a science book
    Don't know much about the french I took

    But I do know that I love you
    And I know that if you love me too
    What a wonderful world this would be

    Tussen all wijsneuzen op het net iemand, die zegt, dat hij iets NIET weet. Waar vind je die nog......
