War (Live) - Edwin Starr War, huh, yeah What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, uh-huh, 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 Oh war, I despise 'Cause it means destruction of innocent lives War means tears to thousands of mothers' eyes When their sons go off 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, huh, whoa-oh-whoa-oh, Lord What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, listen to me War, it ain't nothing but a heartbreak War, friend only to the undertaker Oh, war, is an enemy to all mankind The thought of war blows my mind War has caused unrest within the younger generation Induction then destruction, who wants to die? Oh, war, huh, good god, y'all What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, say it, say it, say it War, huh, uh-huh, yeah, uh What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, listen to me War, it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker War, it got one friend, that's the undertaker Oh, war has shattered many a young man's dreams Made him disabled, bitter and mean Life is much too short and precious to spend fighting wars these days War can't give life, it can only take it away Oh, war, huh, good god, y'all What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, say it again War, huh, whoa-oh-whoa-oh, 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 Oh, war, huh, good god, y'all What is it good for? You tell me, (nothing) say it, say it, say it, say it War, huh, good god, yeah, huh What is it good for? Stand up and shout it (nothing)
