Peace On Earth

by Bill Ludwig

/

about

The Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022 has affected the globe. This uncertainty, tension and tragic loss of life inspired me to write this song.

lyrics

I don't wanna hear about your indecision
The sun is a-setting fore the coming war
The clouds getting angry on the far horizon
The boots that are marching soon stand at our doors

I don't wanna hear about uncertain feelings
The tanks are a-coming around the bend
The clouds are a-flashing with a rolling thunder
The boots are a-marching to kick in our doors

Peace, peace, peace on earth
A little daydreaming but a-dreaming don't hurt
I know I'm just some guy with dead hippies on his shirt
Maybe we could all try dreaming about peace on earth

I don't wanna hear about second guesses
The bomber planes are floating in the sky above
The storm clouds breaking with a crack of lightning
And the boots are tracking mud on the street outside

I don't wanna hear about your escalation
The neighbors pouring bottle bombs on their back porch
And they're headed to the road for a conversation
The boots are running all around and we're all scared

Peace, peace, peace on earth
A little daydreaming but a-dreaming don't hurt
I know I'm just some guy with dead hippies on his shirt
Maybe we could all try dreaming about peace on earth
