Chad Mitchell Trio - With God On Our Side lyrics

Oh my name it means nothin' My age it means less And the country I come from Is called the Midwest I's brought up and taught there The laws to abide And the land that I live in Has God on its side Oh the history books tell it They tell it so well The cavalries charged The Indians fell The cavalries charged And he Indians died Oh the country was young then With God on its side Oh the Spanish-American War had its day And the Civil War too Was soon laid away And the names of the heroes We all memorized With guns in their hands And God on their side Oh the First World War, boys It came and it went And reason for fighting I never did get But I learned to accept it Accept it with pride For you don't count the dead When God's on your side When the Second World War Came to an end We forgave the Germans And then we were friends Though they murdered six million In the ovens they fried The Germans now too Have God on their side But now we got weapons Of the chemical dust If fire them we're forced to Then fire them we must One push of the bu*ton And shoot the world wide And you never ask questions When God's on your side And you never ask questions When God's on your side
