We Want More - John Butler Trio

When I was young

I longed to be a soldier

Playing war on the street

With Billy and my brother

Remembering all them

Years ago, Pop said:

«Don't be a pawn in a rich man’s war

You can’t pick a side living on a ball

The only fight’s to save your soul.»

Kid, when I look around

And witness all the horror

And all the things that we do

To hurt one another

I got open the gates

We want more

We want more

Got everything

Can’t find what we’re looking for

We want more

We want more

Tell me what it means

Feeding this machine, yeah

(Hey)

When I was putting my little boy to bed:

«What about all the war and fighting?»

he said

«Everybody at school, talking about world war three

Can you tell me what’s gonna happen to our family?»

Kid, when I look around

And witness all the horror

And all the things that we do

To hurt one another

Could make you lose your hope

Lose your faith

Go awol on the human race

Got to believe in love

More than I do in hate

And when they rise the walls

You got to open the gates

We want more

We want more

Got everything

Can’t find what we’re looking for

We want more

We want more

Tell me what it means

Feeding this machine, yeah

We want more

We want more

Got everything

Can’t find what we’re looking for

We want more

We want more

Tell me what it means

Feeding this machine, yeah

We want more

We want more

Got everything

Can’t find what we’re looking for

We want more

We want more

Tell me what it means

Feeding this machine, yeah

(Hey)

We Want More

(Hey)

We Want More

(Hey)

We Want More

(Hey)

We Want More

(Hey)

We Want More

(Hey)
