Lyrics
______________________________________________________________________


(spoken)
...don't be eager man, relax, will you relax
I'm a disabled Vietnam veteran
I don't deserve to be out on streets again

____________________


my dear, I fear

this life we love may disappear

these men with mighty swords

send our babies off to war

 
my son, precious one

I would hate, to see you on the run

headed for the border, cause your military orders have come

so I pray, night and day, pray for peace


who are they, to act this way

like they don't care, what we say

the congressmen, the president

do they really represent


and who are we, you and me

we are nothing, if we're not free

free the folk that speak our minds, picket lines, picket signs

and pray, ev'ry day, pray for peace


flaming love for God and Dollar

The Holy Ghost, the Son of Father

for the right to hate each other

make me wanna holler, hey


sister, brother

we are part of, one another

we create our circumstance

imagine if we give peace a chance


instead of flaming love for God and Dollar

of Holy Ghost, the Son of Father

for the right to kill each other

make me wanna holler, hey


pray, for peace, brother, brother, brother

pray, for peace, mother, mother, mother

pray, for peace, God, I hope you're listenin'

pray, for peace, now just sing it with me


(pray, for peace)
oh beautiful for precious skies

(pray, for peace)
for amber waves of grain

(pray, for peace)
purple mountains, majesty

(pray, for peace)
above the fruits and plains


pray, for peace

pray, ev'ry body join me
