Whatever Happened to Peace On Earth
Willie Nelson
There's so many things going on in the world
Babies dying, Mothers crying
How much oil is one human life worth?
And what happened to peace on earth?
We believe everything that they tell us, They're gonna' kill us
So we gotta' kill them first
But I remember a commandment
"Thou shalt not kill"
And how much is that soldier's life worth?
And what happened to peace on earth?
[Bridge]:
And the bewildered herd still believin’
Everything we've been told from our birth
Hell they won't lie to me
Not on my own damn TV
But how much is a liar's word worth?
And whatever happened to peace on earth?
So I guess it's just "Do unto others" before they can do it to you
Let's just kill em' all and let God sort em' out
Is this what God wants us to do?
[Repeat Bridge]
Now you probably won't hear this on your radio
Probably not on your local TV
But if there's a time, and you're ever inclined
You can always hear it from me
But how much is one picker's word worth?
And what happened to peace on earth?
But don't confuse caring for weakness
You can't put that label on me
The truth is my weapon of mass protection
And I believe the truth sets you free
[Repeat Bridge]
