Lyrics
I Fight For Peace As I stepped off that airplane a woman blocked my way Waved an anti war sign here’s what she had to say “How can you kill those people what did they do to you How can you pick up a gun and do the things you do” I said. “I fight for peace-------------------------------------------- Chorus When the cause is right I fight for peace So you can sleep at night I fight for peace So you can live life free I fight for peace So don’t go hatin’ me Turnaround 4 Bars I could be your daughter I might be your son I won’t leave the battle till your freedoms won So you can wear those slogans so you can speak your mind Meet with others like you and carry all those signs I said. I fight for peace-------------------------------------------- Chorus When the cause is right I fight for peace So you can sleep at night I fight for peace So you can live life free I fight for peace So don’t go hatin’ me Turnaround 4 Bars When the last dictator is safely in his grave When there’s no more fanatics, no innocents to save My sword will be a plowshare, I'll lay my weapons down I'll be just as glad as you when no war can be found I said. I fight for peace-------------------------------------------- Chorus When the cause is right I fight for peace So you can sleep at night I fight for peace So you can live life free I fight for peace So don’t go hatin’ me” Turnaround 4 Bars She laid down that placard------------------------------ Bridge Wrapped me in her arms Said “I didn’t understand I meant you no harm” I said. I fight for peace-------------------------------------------- Chorus When the cause is right I fight for peace So you can sleep at night I fight for peace So you can live life free I fight for peace So don’t go hating me I fight for peace So you can live life free I fight for peace So don’t go hatin’ me Don’t go hatin’ me Copyright 2007 John W.
