Intro

Verse 1

 What do I have to do

 I've been down and out doin' without the love that got me through

What do I have to say

 I just want you to know that I know

Chorus

It takes a village to raise a child

It takes an army to march a mile, Yeah

It takes true love to stand the test of time

 And it takes you babe, to make me smile

Verse 2

 What do I have to do

 I've been thinkin' about dreamin' about the things we used to do

And what do I have to say

 I just wanted to know that you know

Chorus

It takes a village to raise a child

It takes an army to march a mile, Yeah

It takes true love to stand the test of time

 And it takes you babe, to make me smile

Bridge

 I would walk across the ocean if I could

If it would bring you back to me

I would steal a feather from an angel's wing

Don't you know it's true that I'd do it all to prove my love to you

 Lead Break: (3X)

It takes a village to raise a child

It takes an army to march a mile

It takes true love to stand the test of time

 And it takes you babe to make me...

It takes a village...to raise the child

It takes an army...to march that mile

It takes true love to stand the test of time

 And it takes you babe to make me smile

And it takes you.....to make smile
