Lyrics When the 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 graves

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

Man can't get along
He just won't agree
Who's right and who's wrong
Don't matter you see
All we know is killing
Ain't the way to go
Gotta get a plan
And change our ways you know

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 graves

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 graves
