When This War Is Over — J. J. Cale

feat. Eric Clapton

When this war is over it will be a better day When this war is over it will be a better day But it won't bring back those poor boys in the grave

Ain't no sense in the action, killing people all the time Ain't no sense no the action, killing people all the time When it happen on the street we call that a crime

These old boys are leading us somewhere - that is plain to see I don't know much of nothing, still it troubles me Got to find another way, this one ain't the way to go Got to get a plan, change our ways or no...

When this war is over it will be a better day When this war is over it will be a better day But it won't bring back those poor boys in the grave

When this war is over, it will be a better day When this war is over, it will be a better day But it won't bring back those poor boys in the grave
