There's been Rumors of War and Wars that have Been, the Meaning of Life has been * Lost in the wind
And some people thinkin' that the end is close by, 'stead of learnin' to live they are * learning to die
[Chorus]

(
I don't know if I'm smart but I think I can see, when someone is pullin' the * wool over me
And if this war comes and death's all around, let me die on this land 'fore I * die underground
[Chorus]
)

There's always been people that have to cause fear, they've been talking about war now for * many long years
I have read all their statements and I've not said a word, but now Lawd God let my * poor voice be heard
[Chorus]

Let me drink from the waters where the mountain streams flood, let the smell of wildflowers flow * free through my blood
Let me sleep in your meadows with the green grassy leaves, let me walk down the highway with my * brother in peace
[Chorus]

Go out in your country where the land meets the sun, see the craters and the canyons * where the waterfalls run
Nevada, New Mexico, Arizona, Idaho, let every state in this union seep * deep down in your soul
[Chorus w/ "and you'll die..."]
