Peace In The Country Lyrics - Mungo Jerry

Written By: Ray Dorset 

There's peace in the country when the sun goes down 

The corn is getting on high 

The war is over an there's peace all around 

I'm gonna stay 'till I die, yeah 

I'm gonna stay 'till I die 

The war was bad but it didn't last long 

Millions are dead and gone 

Nuclair warheads flying all around 

Then somebody dropped the bomb, yeah 

Then somebody dropped the bomb 

There was blood in the mountain, blood in the see 

Blood everywhere I trod 

Women we're dying, children too 

Everybody lost, yeah, everybody lost 

Now the sun's getting lower, and the shadows are cast

I can see the corn getting high 

No fish in the ocean, no birds in the air 

Just dust 'cause someone dropped the bomb, yeah 

Dust 'cause someone dropped the bomb

Damn the politicians dictators and all whoever got us into this mess 

I'm the only one left with all my senses and limbs 

Dunno what's happened to the rest, no 

Dunno what's happened to the rest.
