Black Stone Cherry - War Lyrics
War, huh
Yeah
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Wow-wow
Yeah
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Say it again y'all
War, huh
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Listen to me
I despise, causing meanless destruction of innocent lives
War means tears to thousands of mothers eyes
When the sons go out to fight and lose their lives
I say
War, huh
Good god y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Say it again
War, huh
Wow-wow-wow lord
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Listen to me
Ain't nothing but a heart breaker
Got one friend, that's the undertaker
War is an enemy to all mankind
The soul of what blows my mind
War is causing wrecks in the younger generation
Induction
Destruction
I said who wants to die?
War, huh
Good god y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Say it, say it, say it
War, huh
Aha yeah
Huh
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Listen to me
War
Ain't nothing but a heart breaker
Got one friend, that's the undertaker
War, huh
Wow-wow-wow lord
War
Has shattered many on these streets
Maimed and disabled
Bitter and weak
Life is too short and precious to spend fighting war these days
War can't give life
It can only take it away
War, huh
Good god y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Say it again
War, huh
Wow-wow-wow lord
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Listen to me
War
Ain't nothing but a heart breaker
Got one friend, that's the undertaker
War, huh
Wow-wow-wow lord
Please let me understand and tell me
Is there a place for them today?
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But lord knows there's got to be a better way
War, huh
Good god y'all
What is it good for?
You gone tell me
Nothing
Say it, say it, say it
War, huh
Wow-wow-wow lord
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
You listen to me
War
Ain't nothing but a heart breaker
Got one friend, that's the undertaker
War, huh
Wow-wow-wow lord
What is it good for?
Nothing
War
What is it good for?
War
What is it good for?
War

*Me playing Bangalore on Apex Legends*
Great cover
Hellsing Abridged brought me here.

Edwin Starr should be proud of Black Stone Cherry for doing one hell of a good job with his song War. Black Stone Cherry they didn't just do good they did excellent
Rush hour the movie comes to mind. Black Stone Cherry did a hell of a good job
World War Z brought me here
#Outlivethedead
Does anyone know what instruments were used in the song?
"Sae eet agaen"
Zhe accompaniment has been zelected via zurvey. Und I hope you're as exzited as I am! The zong tonight is most appropriate for, ironic reasons. Zhe best reasons! But first, a toazt. To zhe anzwer of an age. Old, Qvestion.
There are truly powerful verses in this song. It's nice that it's catchy, but I hope you've received the critical message that this song offers. A few good examples:
War means tears to thousands of mothers eyes
When their sons go to fight
And lose their lives
War has shattered many a young man's dreams
Made him disabled, bitter and mean
Life is much to short and precious
To spend fighting wars these days
War can't give life
It can only take it away
War has caused unrest
Within the younger generation
Induction then destruction

Great cover
BSC needs a whole album of just covers. everything they do is amazing!
Rush hour and Walking Dead brought me here
Black Stone Cherry didn't sing the song on rush hour. that was the original version.
But I like this one better
which plays at the time of the rush is sung by Edwin Starr, but that is very similar to the version of Black Stone Cherry, until I confused.
Man, just discovered this album, this is fckin brilliant !
now I want to watch rush hour
What is it good for?!
boosting your military industrial stock....ask the politicians
DaBear1950 I think your politicians are not mine
I don't have any, I'm not rich
Absolutely nothing. Say it again. yall.
This cover... WOW! Anybody else remember hearing the Edwin Starr version in the Small Soldiers movie back in 1998?
"COMMANDOS, ATTACK!!"
LOL some of us remember Edwin Starr's version in LP in early 70;s !!! But this is awesome ROCK!!
JediKnightwing GORGINITE SCUM x'D
@Kay Raedclyffe Listen to The Boss's version, too.
Hell yea man!
Holy crap, been a fan of BSC for years but didn't expect this cover to be as amazing as it is! Really hope they play this live next tour :D It'd be awesome!
I was thinking of the original song when I read the title and the the song comes in "WAR" and it instantly made me surprised :)
Came here because of the Billions commercial from FOX
Cyrus The Great I came here because I love BSC
Sounds identical to "live for the moment".
A great 70's tune, yes I'm old lol! I love it when a great steady Rock Band (BSC) does a cover, I can judge because the original was one of my favorites. Unfriggin believable ::::::::::::::DDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
This is dangerously awesome. Halestorm recommended.
This is also going to my playlist. Keep up the good work Black Stone Cherry!
I just heard this on the radio and I like it. I'm glad they also dropped their major label.
Better than Edwin Starr's 1969 edition of the Original!
What a great cover of a classic song.... BSC just keep pullin it out the bag
Should be Bernie Sander's campaign song.
#FEELTHEBERN
The Punisher no
lol! small soldiers i still remember that movie when i was little kid We're not toys, we're action figures
Insane ass kicking cover!!!! was on an international flight and l found the album on the entertainment.... people was looking at me crazy, couldn't care fucking less, listened this song and album for 9hours straight....
One of the best covers of a song, bar none, ever!
everytime i listen to it, it reminds me on rush hour!
Yes sir :D
Yeah the reason why it reminds you it's because this was the song that was played in rush hour movie
KLBJ brought me here. Best rock countdown I've heard yet.
Stunning version !!
I still can't believe I was asked to lay down the trumpet tracks on this song. What an honor! I'd been a fan of BSC for years and a nicer, more down-to-earth group of guys you'll rarely ever find. Much respect.
sisters*
what would I be without you
I still can't believe they asked me to lay down and die!
You killed it man, the trumpet sounds so great in this!
@Brian Carrier I still...
🤘My Favorite Cover Song!!
Best yet buy BSC Kentucky
OMG, I was not expecting this ahahha! Great!!
my new favorite group
please play this live, great version
+GianniScalera-Guitarist how about OPEN WITH IT ALL THE TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!! (<---- all those for emphasis)
Rush Hour
Dammit think this song damaged my car speakers (couldn't resist cranking it up)!
Epic lads just epic .......
There isn't one song these guys touch that isn't kick ass.
kick ass! now I need to watch Small Soldiers because it reminds me of it. lol
I'm reminded of the original rush hour, myself. still, good movies both lol
+pitchfork lilton netflix
+RvrStyxRasputin Yes!!
watched it yesterday
It was the Nostalgia Critics Review of that movie that brought me here, literally JUST NOW! This cover is phenomenal!
BSC, This is cool!
wow! Can BSC get any better? My favourite band, great to see a descent rock band!
Good god y'all!!! This is my new fave cover!!
GOOD GOD Y'ALL........................ :)
VERY GOOD!!
I think this the best song on this album, and its basically a remake.. not impressed with this album,, their early stuff is still the best. I think they lost their creative song making. dam it!! I love this bank too.
+Ryan Roehr I found BSC on the third and fourth albums Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea... and Magic mountain and there are tons of songs from those that I love. I've gone back and listened to the first two albums and I dunno they just didn't connect with me.
I have listened to every album they've had and I honestly only found a few songs on each album that I didn't like
+Mike Blanchard I totally agree
+Ryan Roehr Go and Listen to Evil. Its a bonus track. Best song on the album and more like their older stuff.
nice cover
Love it! #FEELTHEBERN
MrRiptide420 lol no.
Hehehehe
Starr cover right here. Yet still better.
Wohooo! Amazing!
