“Leute” are people, typically in an everyday setting. “Menschen” if you want to stress that you are talking about human beings, carrying dignity and human rights etc; or if you just want to discern them from animals, programs, aliens. “Volk” is the collective for all members of a nation.

Glad you had some good fun.
As it goes, I had to look up the word 'Leute'. I would have just used 'Volk' and I don't know the difference between the terms.
