Текст песни BOB DYLAN - With God On Our Side
<br/>
Oh my name it is nothin'<br />My age it means less<br />The country I come from<br />Is called the Midwest<br />I's taught and brought up there<br />The laws to abide<br />And the land that I live in<br />( )<br />Has God on its side.<br /><br />Oh the history books tell it<br />They tell it so well<br />The cavalries charged<br />The Indians fell<br />The cavalries charged<br />The Indians died<br />Oh the country was young<br />With God on its side.<br /><br />The Spanish-American<br />War had its day<br />And the Civil War too<br />Was soon laid away<br />And the names of the heroes<br />I's made to memorize<br />With guns on their hands<br />And God on their side.<br /><br />The First World War, boys<br />It came and it went<br />The reason for fighting<br />I never did get<br />But I learned to accept it<br />Accept it with pride<br />For you don't count the dead<br />When God's on your side.<br /><br />When the Second World War<br />Came to an end<br />We forgave the Germans<br />And then we were friends<br />Though they murdered six million<br />In the ovens they fried<br />The Germans now too<br />Have God on their side.<br /><br />I've learned to hate Russians<br />All through my whole life<br />If another war comes<br />It's them we must fight<br />To hate them and fear them<br />To run and to hide<br />And accept it all bravely<br />With God on my side.<br /><br />But now we got weapons<br />Of the chemical dust<br />If fire them we're forced to<br />Then fire them we must<br />One push of the button<br />And a shot the world wide<br />And you never ask questions<br />When God's on your side.<br /><br />In a many dark hour<br />I've been thinkin' about this<br />That Jesus Christ<br />Was betrayed by a kiss<br />But I can't think for you<br />You'll have to decide<br />Whether Judas Iscariot<br />Had God on his side.<br /><br />So now as I'm leavin'<br />I'm weary as Hell<br />The confusion I'm feelin'<br />Ain't no tongue can tell<br />The words fill my head<br />And fall to the floor<br />If God's on our side<br />He'll stop the next war.<br />
