Oo, the storm is threatening
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Oo, yeah, I'm gonna fade away
War, children
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Oo, see the fire is sweepin'
Our very streets today
Burns like a red coal carpet
Mad bull's lost its way
War, children
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away, yeah
Mmm, the flood is threatening
My very life today
Gimme, gimme shelter
Or I'm gonna fade away
War, children
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
(War, children) It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
I tell you love, sister
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away, kiss away, kiss away, yeah
