Songwriter: Kool & the Gang James “J.T.” Taylor George “Funky” Brown

Producer: I.B.M.C. Khalis Bayyan Kool & the Gang

Spinning 'round in your dance of life like a hurricane
'Round and 'round we search for love in a world gone insane
Where's the joy
Where's the laughter?
Have we all gone astray?
Hold on tight
Don't give up
For love is on the way

What we need is a peace maker
What we need is a hero for the world
What we need is a peace maker

This old world is calling out
Man
Woman
Child

There must be someone
Somewhere to show the beauty and the power of love
Could be you
Could be me
That someone from all nations

Come together
Our world as one
For we are the hero generation

What we need is a peace maker
What we need is a mighty mountain of love
What we need is a peace maker

Hearts will praise that precious beauty
When the time has finally come
This song of love

These words of light will help lift you towards the sun
We bring: Peace maker
Peace maker
Mighty mountain of love

Peace maker
Peace maker
Hero for the world

What we need is a peace maker
What we need is a mighty mountain of love
What we need is a peace maker - a mountain of love
What we need is a peace maker - peace maker
What we need is a peace maker - peace maker
What we need is a peace maker - a mountain of love

Kool & the Gang

Kool & the Gang is an American jazz, R&B, soul, funk, and disco group from Jersey City. They were originally named the Jazziacs when they formed the group in 1964.

They went through several musical phases during their recording career, starting out with a purist jazz sound, then funk and R&B, progressing to a smooth pop-funk ensemble, and in the post-millennium creating music with a modern, electro-pop sound.

The group was becoming prominent in the music industry in the 1970s with hits such as “Holly Wood Swinging”, “Jungle Boogie” and “Summer Madness”. However they cemented their legendary status after the addition of lead vocalist James “J.T.” Taylor. With his help they went on to create classic hits such as “Ladies Night”, “Celebration”, “Get Down On It”, “Cherish” and countless others.
