About What A Wonderful World

What a Wonderful World stands as one of Louis Armstrong's most iconic and beloved contributions to music history. Released in 1967, this masterpiece was crafted by Bob Thiele (under the pseudonym George Douglas) and George David Weiss. Initially, the song faced resistance from ABC Records president Larry Newton, who tried to halt its recording session. Despite this opposition, producer Bob Thiele persisted, believing in the song's potential to address the social climate of the 1960s. .

What A Wonderful World Lyrics

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself
"What a wonderful world"

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed days, the dark sacred nights
And I think to myself
"What a wonderful world"

The colors of the rainbow
So pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces
Of people going by
I see friends shaking hands, saying, "How do you do?"
They're really saying, "I love you"

I hear babies cry
I watch them grow
They'll learn much more
Than I'll ever know
And I think to myself
"What a wonderful world"
Yes, I think to myself
"What a wonderful world"

Ooh, yeah
