What is it good for?
Yeah!
What is it good for?
Absolutely
Nothing!
Uh-huh
What is it good for?
Yeah!
What is it good for?
Absolutely
Nothing!
Say it again, y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely
Nothing!
Listen to me
Oh!
War!
I despise
Cause it means destruction
Of innocent lives
War means tens
Ten thousands of mothers die
When their sons go off to fight
And lose their lives
I said
War!
Good!
Good God, y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely
Nothing!
Say it again
War!
Good!
Good God, y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely
Nothing!
Listen to me
War!
It ain't nothing
But a heartbreak
War!
Send only
To the undertaker
Oh!
War!
Is it any mean
To offend me?
The thought of war
Blows my mind
War is caused and wrest
Within the arms
Of generations
Induction
Then destruction
Who wants to die?
Oh!
War!
Good God, y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely
Nothing!
Say it, say it, say it
War!
Good!
Good God, y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely
Nothing!
Listen to me
War!
It ain't nothing
But a heartbreak
War!
Got one friend
That's the undertaker
Oh!
War!
Has shattered
Many a young man's dreams
Made him disabled
Bitter and meek
Life is much too short and precious
To spend fighting wars each day
War can't give life
It can only take it away
Oh!
War!
Good God, y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely
Nothing!
Say it again
War!
Good God, y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely
Nothing!
Listen to me
War!
It ain't nothing
But a heartbreak
War!
Friend only
To the undertaker
Oh!
He's coming under me
And tell me
There's not no place
For him today
They say we must fight
To keep our freedom
But Lord knows
There's got to be a better way
Oh!
War!
Good God, y'all
What is it good for?
You tell them
Say it, say it, say it, say it
War!
Good God, now
What is it good for?
Stand up and shout it
Nothing!
War!
It ain't nothing
But a heartbreak
