Written by Billy Burnette.. . Oh go now and tell the world about it. Stop this show now. There's too few here to die. We don't want war now. Just go on out and shout it. We've tried so many times to change directions. We've even tried some peaceful demonstrations. I wish this could be. Oh I wish this could be the last war song. Well I just don't know. Leaders never listen. To anyone you know. They have so many reasons. Telling you the score. And make it sound confusing. Have a war trying to earn your perfection. I wish I could just lose all connection. I wish this could be. I wish this could be the last war song. .
