Worthless Wars
Johnny Cash

[Verse 1]
Women and the children stay at home,
Government tells the men to go.
Fight wars and die,
Get their money's worth,
Don't cry.

[Chorus]
Love your neighbor, that's what they say,
But forget to love when their neighbor don't pray.
Oh lord, just why?
Don't you think, just lie.

[Verse 2]
Money's a drug, we're all addicts,
Those above us choose who has it.
Chasing shadows, we fall in line,
Faceless leaders, we tow the line.

[Bridge]
Sending sons to foreign lands,
Blood and bodies on the sands.
Buy and sell our soul's worth,
As if they've got some extra worth.

[Chorus]
Love your neighbor, that's what they say,
But forget to love when their neighbor don't pray.
Oh lord, just why?
Don't you think, just lie.

[Outro]
Oh, won't you hear our cries?
No more wars, no more lies.
Government's a drug, and we're all high,
In this web of money, we die.
