| All right, yeah
|
| Make the sound of peace
|
| And sing now
|
| (Stop the war) ow (now)
|
| Everybody
|
| Don’t put it off another day
|
| Make your voices roar
|
| (Stop the war) ow (now)
|
| Just like thunder, y’all
|
| (Don't put it off) hey, another day
|
| Sing a song now
|
| (Stop the war) ow (now)
|
| Listen to me, y’all
|
| (Don't put it off) ow, another day
|
| Listen to me
|
| A knock on the door
|
| There’s a letter from the war
|
| Sayin', greetings, we want you
|
| If I refuse to fight
|
| They say that that ain’t right
|
| And time you’ll have to do
|
| Somebody please tell me
|
| What is war all about
|
| And why must I kill against my will
|
| I just can’t figure it out
|
| Oh, stop the war now
|
| Good God, hear me saying
|
| Don’t put it off another day
|
| Everybody saying
|
| Stop the war now
|
| Now, now, now
|
| Don’t put it off another day
|
| All we got to do is listen
|
| (Give peace a chance)
|
| Don’t throw another life away
|
| Listen to me now
|
| This is bout all the soldiers
|
| That are dead and gone today
|
| If you asked them to fight again
|
| Huh, what do you think they’d say
|
| I’m not trying to be funny
|
| I’m just trying to get my point across
|
| War is world’s enemy number one
|
| And it’s time that we called it off
|
| Ow, stop the war, now
|
| Good God, hear me saying
|
| Don’t put it off another day
|
| Everybody singing
|
| (Stop the war) ow
|
| Now, now, now, now
|
| Don’t put it off another day
|
| All we got to do is, Lord
|
| Give peace a chance
|
| And don’t, don’t throw
|
| Another life away, oh
|
| War casualties pile up each day
|
| Cemeteries are overflowing
|
| The leaders of the world claim victory’s near
|
| But the death list keeps right on growing
|
| And what does a mother get in return
|
| For the life of the son she’s lost
|
| A few measly pennies a month
|
| A medal, a grave and a doggone cross
|
| I said, stop the war now
|
| Good God, hear me saying
|
| Don’t put it off another day
|
| Everybody sing
|
| Stop the war, now
|
| Now, now, now
|
| Don’t put it off another day
|
| Why can’t we just
|
| (Give peace a chance)
|
| Please don’t throw another life away
|
| Can’t you see
|
| Enough blood’s been she’d
|
| By the wounded and the dead
|
| Enough blood’s been she’d
|
| By the wounded and the dead, ohh
|
| Enough blood’s been she’d
|
| By the wounded and the dead, ohh
|
| (Stop the war) listen (now)
|
| Good God, everybody
|
| (Don't put it off) ow
|
| Not another day now
|
| (Stop the war) ow
|
| Now, now, now, now
|
| (Don't put it off) ow, another day
|
| This is a message to the
|
| Leaders of the world
|
| (Give peace a chance)
|
| Oh, let’s make
|
| Tomorrow a brighter day
|
| Stand up |
