Текст Joe Cocker — One Word (Peace)

A man stands on the corner holding a sign
People yell at him as they drive by
I wonder what they read, made them so upset
I looked at the sign and all it said:

One word: Peace
Give me peace in the neighborhood. Peace
One Word: Peace
Some peace in my own backyard.
Peace. One word

A man in a foreign land kneels to pray
And wonders where the bombs will fall today
Our leaders tell me to fear him. You see
Love conquers all is what I believe

One word: Peace
In the neighborhood. Peace
One Word: Peace
What we want in my own backyard
Peace. One word

Everybody’s talking about it
Everyone’s got to have their say
But to achieve it, there is only one way
And it starts with me and the word and the word is:

Peace
Give me peace in the neighborhood. Peace
One word: Peace
Yes some peace and love in my own backyard
Peace. One Word
