Dear Mr. President
Words and music by Joe Dickinson
Dear Mr. President can you buy me a piece of mind
Tonight
I cry…
Do we really have to fight for peace?
How many have to die?
Hate is breeding in the east
Hate is breeding in the west
But I am sleeping on a bed of ashes
Never put to rest
Dear Mr. President can you buy me a piece of mind
Tonight
I cry…
Do we really have to fight for peace?
How many have to die?
Blood is flowing on my streets
People drinking it like wine
But I am sleeping on a bed of ashes
Waiting for my time
Dear Mr. President can you buy me a piece of mind
Tonight
I cry…
(Instrumental solo)
Hate is breeding in the east
Hate is breeding in the west
But I am sleeping on a bed of ashes
Never put to rest
Dear Mr. President can you buy me a piece of mind
Tonight
I cry…
Do we really have to fight for peace?
How many have to die?
