Look at th’ Big War ‘crost the Sea; Well I’m sure that you’ll agree There’s mean things a happenin’ in this world;
I ain’t got a cryin’ dime, An’ I’m that a way all th’ time; There’s mean things a happenin’ in this world;
Ever thing is leased and lent And to Britain it has went; And th’ Soldier in th’ War Don’t know what he’s a fightin’ for; And the Tanks a rollin’ on To th’ burstin’ of th’ bombs; Brother an’ Sister getting’ killed For a green back dollar bill; There’s Mean things a happenin’ in this World
Man and Woman lend an ear To the War that’s drawin’ neat; You are spied on by Police If you Speak the Word of Peace; If you talk ‘bout Broth’ly Love Back in Jail you’ll get shoved; O’ I’d ruther’d fight for Peace Than this crooked Lend & Lease There’s Mean things a happenin’ in this World
Folks wants Peace for miles aroun’ Lord, from New York City down; But we’re a gonna save our Nation With a Peace Mobilization; Lord, the cops turn on th’ heat If you talk Peace on th’ street Organize my Brother and Sister And we’ll win this World again; There’s Mean things a happenin’ in this WorldTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
