We Got To Have Peace - Single Version
We got to have peace
To keep the world alive
And war to cease
We got to have joy
True in our hearts
With strength we can't destroy
People hear us
Through our voice the world knows
There's no choice
We're begging to save the children
The little ones
Who just don't understand
Give them a chance
To breed their young
And help purify the land
People hear us
Through our voice the world knows
There's no choice
And the people in our neighborhood
They would if they only could
Meet and shake the other's hand
Work together for the good of the land
Give us all an equal chance
It could be such a sweet romance
And the soldiers who are dead and gone
If only we could bring back one
He'd say, "We got to have peace
To keep the world alive
And war to cease
We got to have joy
True in our hearts
With strength we can't destroy
People hear us
Through our voice the world knows
There's no choice
And the people in our neighborhood
They would if they only could
Meet and shake the other's hand
Work together for the good of the land
Give us all an equal chance
It could be such a sweet romance
And the soldiers who are dead and gone
If only we could bring back one
We got to have peace
We got to have peace
Let the world know
Peace, peace, peace
We got to have peace
People hear us
Through our voice the world knows
There's no choice
Save the children
Save the children
Save the children
And the people in our neighborhood
Who would if they only could
Meet and shake the other's hand
Work together for the good of the land
Give us all an equal chance
It could be such a sweet romance
And the soldiers who are dead and gone
If only we could bring back one
We got to have peace
We got to have peace
Let the people singin'
Peace, peace, peace
We got to have peace
I sing peace, peace, peace
We got to have peace
Peace, peace, peace
We got to have peace
To keep the world alive
And war to cease
We got to have joy
True in our hearts
With strength we can't destroy
People hear us
Through our voice the world knows
There's no choice
We're begging to save the children
The little ones
Who just don't understand
Give them a chance
To breed their young
And help purify the land
People hear us
Through our voice the world knows
There's no choice
And the people in our neighborhood
They would if they only could
Meet and shake the other's hand
Work together for the good of the land
Give us all an equal chance
It could be such a sweet romance
And the soldiers who are dead and gone
If only we could bring back one
He'd say, "We got to have peace
To keep the world alive
And war to cease
We got to have joy
True in our hearts
With strength we can't destroy
People hear us
Through our voice the world knows
There's no choice
And the people in our neighborhood
They would if they only could
Meet and shake the other's hand
Work together for the good of the land
Give us all an equal chance
It could be such a sweet romance
And the soldiers who are dead and gone
If only we could bring back one
We got to have peace
We got to have peace
Let the world know
Peace, peace, peace
We got to have peace
People hear us
Through our voice the world knows
There's no choice
Save the children
Save the children
Save the children
And the people in our neighborhood
Who would if they only could
Meet and shake the other's hand
Work together for the good of the land
Give us all an equal chance
It could be such a sweet romance
And the soldiers who are dead and gone
If only we could bring back one
We got to have peace
We got to have peace
Let the people singin'
Peace, peace, peace
We got to have peace
I sing peace, peace, peace
We got to have peace
Peace, peace, peace
We got to have peace
