War / No More Trouble - Medley / Live At The Rainbow Theatre, London / June 3, 1977

Jah Rastafari

Until, the philosophy, which holds one race superior
And, another
Inferior
Is finally
And permanently
Discredited
And abandoned
Well everywhere is war (war)
Me say war (war)

And until there's no longer
First class and second class citizens of any nation
Until the color of a man's skin
Is of no more, significance
Than the colors of his eyes
I've got to say war (war)

Until the basic human rights
Are equally guaranteed to all
Without, regard to race
Me say war (war)
Cause until that day
The dream of lasting peace
World citizenship
And the rule of international morality
Will remain but a fleeting illusion, to be pursued
But never attained

Well everywhere is war (war)
Me say war (war)
War (war) in the East
War (war) in the West
War (war) up North
War (war) down South
And its a war (war)
Rude men and rulers of war (war)

And until
The ignoble and unhappy regimes that hold our brothers in Angola
In Mozambique, yeah
South Africa, yeah
Sub-human bondage
Has been toppled
Utterly destroyed
Well, every, every, everywhere is, (war)
Everywhere is war (war)
Everywhere is war (war)
Everywhere is war (war)
Everywhere is war (war)
Everywhere is war (war)
Everywhere is war (war)

And until that day
The African continent
Will not know peace
We Africans will fight - we find it necessary
We know we shall win
We are confident in the victory
Of good over evil, yeah
Of Good over evil, yeah
Of Good over evil
Well everywhere is, (war)
Me say (war)
Everywhere is, (war)
Some cryin', (war)
Some dyin', (war)
Some fightin' for freedom (war)
Some cryin', (war)
War in the, war in the, war in the, (war)

War in the east (war)
War in the west (war)
War up north (war)
War down south, yeah (war)
War in the, war in the, war in the, (war)
War in the, war in the, war in the, (war)
Everywhere is, everywhere is (war)
Everywhere is, everywhere is war (war)
