Lyrics Don't You Go - John Martyn

Don't You Go

The army and the navy
They never will agree
Til all the men and all the boys
Are gone from our country
Don’t you go
Don’t you go my son
Don’t you go
Don’t you go my son
The proud and the powerful
In whose hands we lie
Never will be satisfied
Til all our women cry
Don’t you go
Don’t you go
Ah, don’t you go
Don’t you go my son
The mastery, the misery
Called the art of war
Must never triumph over peace
As it has done before
Don’t you go
Don’t you go my son
Don’t you go
Don’t you go my son
The army and the navy
They never will agree
'Til all the men and all the boys
Are gone from this country
Oh, don’t you go
Don’t you go my son
Don’t you go
Don’t you go
Don’t you go
Don’t you go
Don’t you go
Don’t you go my son
