War -- Edwin Starr Oh no-there's got to be a
better way Say it again There's got to be a
better way-yeah What is it good for? *War
has caused unrest Among the younger
generation Induction then destruction Who
wants to die? War-huh What is it good
for? Absolutely nothing Say it
again War-huh What is it good
for? Absolutely nothing Yeah War-I
despise 'Cos it means destruction Of
innocent lives War means tears To thousands
of mothers how When their sons go off to
fight And lose their lives I
said War-huh It's an enemy of all
mankind No point of war 'Cos you're a
man *(Repeat) Give it to me one
time-now Give it to me one time-now War has
shattered Many young men's dreams We've got
no place for it today They say we must fight
to keep our freedom But Lord, there's just got
to be a better way It ain't nothing but a
heartbreaker War Friend only to the
undertaker War War War-Good God,
now Now Give it to me one time now Now
now What is it good for?
