With God on our side - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)
Written by：Unknown
Oh my name it is nothin'

My age it means less

The country I come from

Is called the Midwest

I's taught and brought up there

The laws to abide
And that land that I live in
Has God on it's side

Oh the history books tell it

They tell it so well

The cavalries charged

The Indians fell

The cavalries charged

The Indians died

Oh the country was young

With God on it's side

Oh the Spanish American

War had it's day
And the civil war too

Was soon laid away

And the names of the heroes

I's made to memorize

With guns in their hands
And God on their side

Oh the first world war boys

It closed out it's fate

The reason for fighting

I never did get

But I learned to accept it

Accept it with pride

For you don't count the dead
When God's on your side

When the second world war

Came to an end

We forgave the Germans

And we were friends
Though they murdered six million

In the ovens they fried
The Germans now too
Have God on their side

I've learned to hate Russians

All through my whole life

If another war starts

It's them we must fight

To hate them and fear them

To run and to hide
And accept it all bravely
With God on my side

But now we got weapons

Of the chemical dust

If fire them we're forced to

Then fire them we must

One push of the button

And a shot the world wide

And you never ask questions

When God's on your side

In a many dark hour

I've been thinkin' about this

That Jesus Christ
Was betrayed by a kiss

But I can't think for you

You'll have to decide

Whether Judas Iscariot

Had God on his side

So now as I'm leavin'

I'm weary as hell

The confusion I'm feelin'

Ain't no tongue can tell

The words fill my head

And fall to the floor
If God's on our side
He'll stop the next war
