All Mixed Up Lyrics - Peter, Paul & Mary

You know this language that we speak 

Is part German, Latin and part Greek 

Celtic and Arabic all in a heap 

Well amended by the people in the street 

The Choctaw gave us the word okay 

Vamose is a word from Mexico way 

And all of this is a hint I suspect 

Of what comes next 

I think that this whole world 

Soon mama, my whole wide world 

Soon mama, my whole world 

Soon gonna be get mixed up 

Soon mama, my whole world 

Soon mama, my whole wide world 

Soon mama, my whole world 

Soon gonna be get mixed up 

I like Polish sausage, I like Spanish rice 

And pizza pie is also nice 

Corn and beans from the Indians here 

Washed down by German beer 

A Marco Polo traveled by camel and pony 

He brought to Italy, the first macaroni 

And you and I as well we're able 

We put it all on the table 

I think that this whole world 

Soon mama, my whole wide world 

Soon mama, my whole world 

Soon gonna be get mixed up 

Soon mama, my whole world 

Soon mama, my whole wide world 

Soon mama, my whole world 

Soon gonna be get mixed up 

There were no red-headed Irishmen 

Before the Vikings landed in Ireland 

How many Romans had dark curly hair 

Before they brought slaves from Africa? 

No race of man is completely pure 

Nor is anyone's mind, and that's for sure 

The winds mix the dust of every land 

And so will woman and man 

I think that this whole world 

Soon mama, my whole wide world 

Soon mama, my whole world 

Soon gonna be get mixed up 

Soon mama, my whole world 

Soon mama, my whole wide world 

Soon mama, my whole world 

Soon gonna be get mixed up 

This doesn't mean we will all be the same 

We'll have different faces and different names 

Long live many different kinds of races 

It's a difference of opinion that makes horse races 

Just remember the rule about rules, brother 

What's right for one could be wrong for the other 

And take a tip from La Belle France 

Viva la difference 

I think that this whole world 

Soon mama, my whole wide world 

Soon mama, my whole world 

Soon gonna be get mixed up 

Soon mama, my whole world 

Soon mama, my whole wide world 

Soon mama, my whole world 

Soon gonna be get mixed up 

Soon mama, my whole world 

Soon mama, my whole wide world 

Soon mama, my whole world 

Soon gonna be get mixed up
