Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Until the philosophy
Which hold one race superior
And another
Inferior
Is finally
And permanently
Discredited and abandoned
[Verse 2]
Well, everywhere is war
Is here war
[Verse 3]
And until there's no longer
First class and second class citizens
Of any nation
Until the color of a man's skin
Is of no more significance
Than the color of his eyes
I've got to say war, ay
[Verse 4]
And until the basic human rights
Are equally guaranteed to all
Without regard to race
This here war
[Verse 5]
But until that day
The dream of lasting peace
World citizenship
And a rule of international morality, ay
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion
To be pursued
But never attained
[Verse 6]
Well, everywhere is war
Is here war
War in the East
War in the West
War up North
War down South
[Verse 7]
This here war, war
And a rumors of war
And until the ignoble
And unhappy regime
That hold our brothers in South Africa, yeah
South Africa, yeah
[Verse 8]
Sub-human bondage
Have been toppled
Totally down-stroyed
Well, everywhere is, everywhere, everywhere, everywhere
Everywhere, everywhere, everywhere
[Verse 9]
War in the East
War in the West
War up North
War down South
This here war, a war
And a rumors of war
[Verse 10]
And until
And until
And till all these things have a meanin'
Till man learns
There'll be always war, now
[Verse 11]
There'll be always war
And be war in the East
War in the West
War up North
War down South
[Verse 12]
Some winning
Some losin'
Some dying
Some crying
Some singin'
[Verse 13]
We don't need
No more troubles
We don't need
No more troubles
No more troubles, no more troubles
No more troubles
[Verse 14]
Ay, what we need is love
(Love)
To guide and protect us on
(On)
If you're up, look down from above
(Up)
Help the weak if you are strong, yeah
(Strong)
We don't need no trouble
What we need is love
(What we need is love, sweet, love)
[Verse 15]
We don't need
No more troubles
No more troubles, no more troubles
No more troubles, no more troubles
We don't need
We don't need
No more troubles
No more war, no more war
No more war, I say
[Verse 16]
Speak happiness
Sad enough without your woes
Come on and speak of love
Sad enough without your foes, yeah
[Verse 17]
We don't need no trouble
What we need is love
(What we need is love, sweet, love)
We don't need
