Gun - War, Eric Burdon

Throw away your gun

(Machine-gun, shotgun)

All it takes to have fun

Throw away your knife

(Razor-blade, switch-blade)

Ain’t nobody got it made

Throw away your

Distorted life

(paranoia, schizophrenia, …)

Throw away your anger

Save some tears

Throw away your anger

Save some tears

Save the tears from all

Who are still back there

Who have not seen

The love we share, oh, baby

Throw away your knife

(Razor-blade, switch-blade)

Ain’t nobody got it made

Throw away your gun

Come with me

Throw away anger

Come along with me, oh

Throw away your hunger

(Fish and chips, onion rings)

I’ll feed you

(All those others got it made)

Throw away your anger

I’ll soothe you

Throw away your hatred

You’ve got my hand

Throw away your mis-

Understanding

Throw it all away

Come with me

Throw it all away, ah

Come with me

I’ll take you to a place

You will smile

Take you to a place

(Come on, come on, come on, come on)

Where you will

Where you will

(Come on, come on, come on, come on)

Be at peace

(Take me baby)

Be at peace with you

(Come on, come on, come on, come on)

You, yourself

(Take me baby)

(Come on, come on, come on, come on)

Take me baby

(Take me baby)

Take me

(Come on, come on, come on, come on)

To your …

(Take me baby)

(Come on, come on, come on, come on)

(Take me baby)

(Come on, come on, come on, come on)

(Take me baby)

(Come on, come on, come on, come on)

(Take me baby)

(Come on, come on, come on, come on)

(Take me baby)

(Come on, come on, come on, come on)

(Take me baby)

(Come on, come on, come on, come on)

(Take me baby)

(Come on, come on, come on)

Throw away your grass

Your cocaine too

(… spoon …)

Throw away your rage

(… on … on)

And those blues

You won’t need any of that

When I do

The things I’ve got

To say to you

Will get you high

The things I do

Will make you cry

Throw away your gun

(Machine-gun, shotgun)

Your hatchet too

(All the things …)

Throw your mad

Body too

Throw it all away

Throw it all away

Come with me

Come with me

Come on let’s go with me

Don’t hold on, baby

Let go now, let’s go now
