Nore: Only the fifth verse is not a part of the original Ed McCurdy song.
Last night I had the strangest dream
I’d ever dreamed before
I dreamed the world had all agreed
To put an end to war.
I dreamed I saw a mighty room
Filled with women and men
And the paper they were signing said
They’d never fight again
And when the paper was all signed
And a million copies made
They all joined hands and bowed their heads
And grateful prayers were prayed.
And the people in the streets below
Were dancing ’round and ’round
While guns and swords and uniforms
Lay scattered on the ground.
Then let’s join hands and make a pledge
That we’ll have peace today.
Then generations yet to come
Will never have to say
Last night I had the strangest dream
I’d ever dreamed before
I dreamed the world had all agreed
To put an end to war.
