[Verse 1]
Yeah, this storm is threat'ning
My very life today
If I don't get that shelter
Lord, I'm gonna fade away

[Chorus]
War, children
It's just a shot away
War, children
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away
Yeah!

[Verse 2]
Yeah, the fire is sweeping
Our very street today
Lord, burns like a red coal carpet
Mad bull lost your way

[Chorus]
War, children
It's just a shot away
War, children
It's just a shot away, a shot away
Yeah!

My very life today
