Your rating:
War, huh, yeah What is it good for? Absolutely nothing Ah, ha, ha, ha War, huh, yeah What is it good for? Absolutely nothing Sing it again, y'all War, huh (Huh, look out) What is it good for? Absolutely nothing Listen to me Oh, war I despise 'Cause it means destruction Of innocent lives War means tears To thousands of mothers' eyes When their sons go out to fight And lose their lives I said, war, huh (Good God y'all) What is it good for? Absolutely nothing Just say it again War, huh (Woh, woh woh Lord) What is it good for? Absolutely nothing Listen to me War, it ain't nothin' but a heartbreaker War, friend only to the undertaker Ah, war is an enemy To all mankind The thought of war blows my mind War has caused unrest Within the younger generation Induction, then destruction Who wants to die? Ahh, war, huh (Good God, y'all) What is it good for? Absolutely nothing Say it, say it, say it War, huh (Ah ha yeah, huh) What is it good for? Absolutely nothing Listen to me War, it ain't nothin' but a heartbreaker War, it got one friend, that's the undertaker Ah, war has shattered Many a young man's dreams Made him disabled, bitter and mean Life is much too short and precious To spend fighting wars each day War can't give life It can only take it away Ahh, war, huh (Good God y'all) What is it good for? Absolutely nothing Say it again War, huh (Woh woh woh, Lord) What is it good for? Absolutely nothing Listen to me War, it ain't nothin' but a heartbreaker War, friend only to the undertaker, oh 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 gotta be a better way Ahh, war huh (Good God y'all) What is it good for? You tell me Say it, say it, say it War, huh (Good God y'all) What is it good for? Stand up and shout it, nothing War, huh (It ain't nothin' but a heartbreaker)
