Alright, yeah, make the sound of peace and sing now, stop the war, now, everybody, don't
Another day, make your voices roar, stop the war, now, just like thunder, y'all, don't put it off
Another day, sing a song now, stop the war, now, listen to me, y'all, don't put it off
Another day, listen to me
Knock on the door, it's the letter from the war saying, 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 they kill against my will? I just can't figure it out, oh
Stop the war, now, good God, hear me say, don't put it off
Another day, everybody say, stop the war, now, now, now, now
Don't put it off, another day, all we got to do is listen
Hear me say, oh, don't throw another life away, listen to me now
Think about all the soldiers that are dead and gone today
If you ask them to fight again, 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
Stop the war, now, good God, hear me say, don't put it off
Another day, everybody say, stop the war, now, now, now, now
Don't put it off, another day, all we got to do is listen
Hear me say, oh, don't throw another life away
Oh, casualties pile up each day, cemeteries are overflowing
The leaders of the world claim victory's near, but the deathless 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 of fame, and a doggone cross that says
Stop the war, now, good God, hear me say, don't put it off
Another day, everybody say, 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
Enough blood's been shed by the wounded and the dead
Stop the war, listen, now, good God, everybody
Don't put it off, not another day, now
Stop the war, now, now, now, now
Don't put it off, another day
This is a message to the leaders of the world
Give peace a chance
Another day, make your voices roar, stop the war, now, just like thunder, y'all, don't put it off
Another day, sing a song now, stop the war, now, listen to me, y'all, don't put it off
Another day, listen to me
Knock on the door, it's the letter from the war saying, 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 they kill against my will? I just can't figure it out, oh
Stop the war, now, good God, hear me say, don't put it off
Another day, everybody say, stop the war, now, now, now, now
Don't put it off, another day, all we got to do is listen
Hear me say, oh, don't throw another life away, listen to me now
Think about all the soldiers that are dead and gone today
If you ask them to fight again, 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
Stop the war, now, good God, hear me say, don't put it off
Another day, everybody say, stop the war, now, now, now, now
Don't put it off, another day, all we got to do is listen
Hear me say, oh, don't throw another life away
Oh, casualties pile up each day, cemeteries are overflowing

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 of fame, and a doggone cross that says
Stop the war, now, good God, hear me say, don't put it off
Another day, everybody say, 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
Enough blood's been shed by the wounded and the dead
Stop the war, listen, now, good God, everybody
Don't put it off, not another day, now
Stop the war, now, now, now, now
Don't put it off, another day
This is a message to the leaders of the world
Give peace a chance
