War Song Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In the morning when you wake up
You've got planes flying in the sky
Flying bombs made to break up
All the lies in your eyes
There's a man says he can put an end to war

[Bridge]
They shot George Wallace down
He'll never walk around
Mines are sleeping in the sea
Blow those bridges down
And burn that jungle down
And kill those Vietnamese

[Refrain]
There's a man says he can put an end to war

[Verse 1]
In the morning when you wake up
You've got planes flying in the sky
Flying bombs made to break up
All the lies in your eyes
There's a man says he can put an end to war
