War
War, huh, yeah
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
War, huh, yeah
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Say it again y'all
War, huh, good God
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, listen to me
War, I despise
'Cause it means destruction
Of innocent lives
War means tear to thousands of mothers eyes
When their sons go off to fight
And lose their lives
War, huh, good God y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, say it again
War, whoa, lord
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, listen to me
It ain't nothin but a heartbreaker
Friend only to the undertaker
Oh war, is an enemy to all mankind
The thought of war blows my mind
War has caused unrest in the younger generation
Induction, then destruction who wants to die
War, good God y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, say it, say it, say it
War, uh, huh, yeah, huh
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing. Listen to me
It ain't nothin but a heartbreaker
Got one friend that's the undertaker
Oh, war has shattered many young mans dreams
Made him disabled bitter and mean
Life is much to short and precious to fight mighty wars these days
War can't give life it can only take it away
War, huh, good God y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, say it, say again
War, whoa, lord
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, listen to me
It ain't nothin but a heartbreaker
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
