Mungo Jerry - Peace In The Country Lyrics
There's peace in the country when the sun goes down
The corn is getting on high
The war is over an there's peace all around
I'm gonna stay 'till I die, yeah
I'm gonna stay 'till I die
Millions are dead and gone
Nuclear warheads flying all around
Then somebody dropped the bomb, yeah
Then somebody dropped the bomb
There was blood in the mountain, blood in the see
Blood everywhere I trod
Women we're dying, children too
Everybody lost, yeah, everybody lost
Now the sun's getting lower, and the shadows are cast
No fish in the ocean, no birds in the air
Just dust 'cause someone dropped the bomb, yeah
Dust 'cause someone dropped the bomb
Damn the politicians dictators and all whoever got us into this mess
I'm the only one left with all my senses and limbs
Dunno what's happened to the rest, no
Dunno what's happened to the rest.

Mungo Jerry Peace In The Country Comments
My favorite Mungo Jerry song....more relative to today than ever before.
This is one of the happiest end-of-the-world songs ever. (along with Tom Lehrer - We Will All Go Together When We Go & Weird Al - Christmas at Ground Zero)
Nice! Mungo Jerry's finest! Brings back so many memories. Thanks so mush
The end of the world - but still a great foot-stomper!
Thanks for the lyrics too.
