Ain't Gonna Party No More Songtext
von The Turtles

I heard about a man
Who said that he found a plan
To end all the wars of man
But nobody cared

He asked them to drop their guns
To come home and love someone
Watch corn in the morning sun
Plan children to bear

Since I was just a little boy
I′ve been hearing tales of war
How if we don't make men destroy
Any land outside our shore
How will they know we mean to fight?
For what is worth fighting for?


I′ll never hold a gun for them
Against my brothers 'cross the sea
There's so much work to do at home
When the mind and soul are free
When will they send my brothers home
So they can be free with me?

Better end the war as quick as you can
There′s hunger in America, we need every man
We′ve got ignorance, pollution and so much more
If there's one thing we don′t need it's your damn war

We ain′t gonna party no more
You went to war
And you didn't even tell us
We ain′t gonna party no more

We ain't gonna party no more
You can't hold up the flag
And try to lie behind it
We ain′t gonna party no more

Oh, spacious skies for waves of grain
Once I pledge myself to you
I pledge to textbooks, dates and names
And the dreams I thought came true
How can my daughter do the same
For your red, white and blue?


We ain′t gonna party no more
We ain't gonna party no more
We ain′t gonna party no more
We ain't gonna party no more
We ain′t gonna party no more
We ain't gonna party no more
We ain′t gonna party no more
We ain't gonna party no more
We ain't gonna party no more
We ain′t gonna party no more
