War lyrics - Joan Osborne

(originally by Edwin Starr)

[Chorus:]
War
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing

War, it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
Friend only to the undertaker
War means tears
To thousands of mothers' eyes
When their sons go out to fight
And their daughters lose their lives in

[Chorus]

War, it's an enemy of all mankind
The news of war, it breaks my heart and closes my mind
War has laid waste to a whole generation
Induction then destruction
And who wants to die in a

War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Tell me
War
What is it good for
Ask yourself this question

Peace Love and Understanding;
Tell me, is there no place for them today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But lord, lord there's got to be a better way

War
What is it good for
Tell me, tell me, tell me
War

What is it good for

Can you tell me now
There's got to be a better way
