Stop The War Now |
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 |
