End These Wars

Intro

(Ohhh) Lay down the rifles, boys

Come home to the firelight glow

Verse

We've fought on foreign soil, under blood-red skies

Brothers side by side, with fire in our eyes

Mama's prayin' hard, Daddy's holdin' the line

But enough of the buryin', it's time to draw the line

Flags still wavin' high, from the mountains to the plains

Proud of what we've stood for, but weary of the pain

Chorus

Let's end these wars, yeah, bring 'em all back home

Put away the fightin', let the healin' begin

Hand in hand, we stand, under the red, white, and blue

Love one another, like family do

Oh, let's get along, no more tearin' apart

One nation, one heart, beatin' strong from the start

End these wars, end these wars

Yeah, love one another, yeah

Verse

From the farms in the heartland to the streets of the town

We've got more in common than what's tryin' to pull us down

Soldier's boots are tired, farmer's hands are calloused

Time to share a cold one, leave the grudges demolished

Stars shine the same on every face we see

From sea to shinin' sea, let's just let it be

Chorus

Let's end these wars, yeah, bring 'em all back home

Put away the fightin', let the healin' begin

Hand in hand, we stand, under the red, white, and blue

Love one another, like family do

Oh, let's get along, no more tearin' apart

One nation, one heart, beatin' strong from the start

End these wars, end these wars

Yeah, love one another, yeah

Bridge

No more goodbyes at the depot gate

No more empty chairs at the supper table

We've got the strength, we've got the will

To turn the page, yeah, and keep it real

Amen to peace, hallelujah rise

One big family, under these American skies

Chorus

Let's end these wars, yeah, bring 'em all back home

Put away the fightin', let the healin' begin

Hand in hand, we stand, under the red, white, and blue

Love one another, like family do

Oh, let's get along, no more tearin' apart

One nation, one heart, beatin' strong from the start

End these wars, end these wars

Yeah, love one another, yeah

End these wars (end these wars)

Love one another (yeah)
