Lyrics:

War, huh, yeah

What is it good for

Absolutely nothing

Uh-huh

War, huh, yeah

What is it good for

Absolutely nothing

Say it again, y'all



War, huh, good God

What is it good for

Absolutely nothing

Listen to me



Ohhh, war, I despise

Because it means destruction

Of innocent lives



War means tears

To thousands of mothers eyes

When their sons go to fight

And lose their lives



I said, war, huh

Good God, y'all

What is it good for

Absolutely nothing

Say it again



War, whoa, Lord

What is it good for

Absolutely nothing

Listen to me



War, it ain't nothing

But a heartbreaker

War, friend only to the undertaker

Ooooh, war

It's an enemy to all mankind

The point of war blows my mind

War has caused unrest

Within the younger generation

Induction then destruction

Who wants to die

Aaaaah, war-huh

Good God y'all

What is it good for

Absolutely nothing

Say it, say it, say it

War, huh

What is it good for

Absolutely nothing

Listen to me



War, huh, yeah

What is it good for

Absolutely nothing

Uh-huh

War, huh, yeah

What is it good for

Absolutely nothing

Say it again y'all

War, huh, good God

What is it good for

Absolutely nothing

Listen to me



War, it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker

War, it's got one friend

That's the undertaker

Ooooh, war, has shattered

Many a young mans dreams

Made him disabled, bitter and mean

Life is much to short and precious

To spend fighting wars these days

War can't give life

It can only take it away



Ooooh, war, huh

Good God y'all

What is it good for

Absolutely nothing

Say it again



War, whoa, Lord

What is it good for

Absolutely nothing

Listen to me



War, it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker

War, friend only to the undertaker

Peace, love and understanding

Tell me, is there no place for them today

They say we must fight to keep our freedom

But Lord knows there's got to be a better way



Ooooooh, war, huh

Good God y'all

What is it good for

You tell me

Say it, say it, say it, say it



War, huh

Good God y'all

What is it good for

Stand up and shout it
