mother oh mother, nothing is wrong
i got this black eye from falling down
i said no one pushed me around
mother oh mother, did I let you down
i know you thought we had a fight
injustice is empty in the night
enemy, can we end this peacefully?
he told me we can end this peacefully
sister oh sister, who made you cry
give me the word and I'll make them pay
give me the word and I'll give them to they…
enemy, can we end this peacefully?
he told me we can end this peacefully
brother oh brother, I'll push down your gun
i know you could never hurt someone
put down your aim, you can never run
enemy, can we end this peacefully?
he told me we can end this peacefully
