I went to a new age doctor,
she taught me a thing or two, about our bodies and living,
about loving one another, our sisters and brothers,
and how to keep ourselves in tune... (she told me)
8 hugs a day, keeps us healthy, keeps us happy,
8 hugs a day, every day
Hug your neighbours, hug your friends, hug your family whenever you see them
Hug strangers, till they’re family.
8 Hugs a day, 8 hugs a day, 8 hugs a day, every day
I climbed the highest mountain peak, in the land
to reach that temple of old.
I spoke with a wise guru man, and his brothers
and learned what they had learned... (they told me)
8 hugs a day, keeps us healthy, keeps us happy,
8 hugs a day, every day
Hug your neighbours, hug your friends, hug your family whenever you see them
Hug strangers, till they’re family.
8 Hugs a day, 8 hugs a day, 8 hugs a day, every day
So I hope you’ll hug me, today, and again tomorrow
We all need our daily dosage of human contact,
it’s a simple prescription
8 hugs a day, keeps us healthy, keeps us happy,
8 hugs a day, every day
Hug your neighbours, hug your friends, hug your family whenever you see them
Hug strangers, till they’re family.
8 Hugs a day, 8 hugs a day, 8 hugs a day, every day
