New Geography
Get to know the world / the people and the places
The language of the rainbow / spoken on the faces
Get to know the world / get to know the human story
Help the land you live in / to show it’s hidden glory
(Bridge) From Africa to Asia / Australia & Japan
The world it will amaze ya if you try to understand
North and South America / from Greenland to Peru
Europe, Russia, Middle East
All inviting you … to
Get to know the world / get to know the human tribe
Hop on a magic carpet / let wonder be your guide
(Chorus) North, south, east and west
Be a point of light upon the map
North, south, east and west
This is lesson one in geography
Get to know the world / the rhythms and the dance
The songs of many nations / from Mexico to France
Get to know the world / the joy and the sorrow
The wisdom of the elders / the heartbeat of tomorrow
(chorus)
Get to know the world / get to know the world in you
Let your native colors / come shining through
