My darling son, we’ve been here before
After the last one
We said never no more
But my darling son, we’re still settling old scores
And Now your called up to war

My dearest husband, our son seems so young
My dearest husband, to shoulder a gun
My dearest husband, so what’s to become
Our son’s been called up to war

Chorus:
No more war
No more war anymore
No more war
No more war anymore

Daughter, dear daughter
What can I say?
Daughter, dear daughter
Your brother’s called away
Daughter Dear daughter
They might draft you one day
To fight side your brother at war

Mother, Father, forgive me I pray
They made me a soldier
I’m forced to obey
It’s my life or their’s
So it’s them I must slay
If your son wants to come home from war

No more War....

Mercy, oh mercy
There’s a knock upon my door
Mercy, oh mercy
It hits me to the core
They hand me a letter
In their eyes I read the horror
My son’s never coming home from war

I’ve fallen hard on my weakened knees
At the site of his grave
I’m drenched in pure grief
Tho I can’t save my son
To you I implore
Let’s keep our children far away from war

No more war......

Could you ever imagine with a baby in your arms
Sending your sweet one into a path of harm
To fight bloody battles
Not pretend, not for fun
Lying on the field dead are our daughters and sons

No more war......
