it takes all kinds to make a world

well it takes all kinds to make a world big

and little men and women boys and girls

and i'm the kinda guy hard luck sure gives a whirl

but i guess it takes all kinds to make a world

my friend and me went to a picture show in town

they called his name and said his house had just burned down

i took his hand and offered him my sympathy

then suddenly i remembered that he lived with me

well it takes all kinds to make a world. pa pa pa pa pa

well i wrecked the heck out of my pretty car today

cause it's a total loss and i had to walk on home all the way

then a phone call said you're holdin' ticket seventeen

you lucky boy you've won a tank of gasoline

well it takes all kinds to make a world. well last night i had the pleasure of her company

she said she'd like to see a whole lot more of me

and i spent money like i had my pockets full

now ask me how it feels to try to see through wool

well it takes all kinds to make a world. yes i guess it takes all kinds to make a world
