War, huh, yeah What is it good for
Absolutely nothing Uh-huh
Say it again, y'all ... Listen to me
Ohhh, war, I despise Because it means destruction Of innocent lives
War mean tears to thousands of mothers eyes
When their sons go to fight and lose their lives
I said, war huh, Good God, y'all
What is good for
Absolutely nothing Say it again
War, whoa, Lord What is it good for ...
War, it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
War, friend only to the undertaker
Ooooh, war It's an enemy to all mankind
The point of war blows my mind
War has caused unrest within the younger generation
Induction then destruction who wants to die
Aaaaah, war-huh ... War, it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
War it' got one friend that's the undertaker
Ooooh, war, has shattered Many a young mans dreams
Made him disabled, bitter and mean
Life is much to short and precious To spend fighting war these days
War can't give life It can only take it away
Ooooh, war, huh ... War, it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
War, friend only to the undertaker Peace, love and understanding
Tell me, is there no place for them today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord knows there's got to be a better way
Ooooooh, war, huh Good God y'all
What is it good for You tell me Say it, say it, say it, say it
War, huh Good god y'all
What is it good for Stand up and shout it Nothing
Stand up and shout it Nothing

"Stop the war now" Edwin Starr
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 shed
By the wounded and the dead
Enough blood’s been shed
By the wounded and the dead, ohh
Enough blood’s been shed
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
