Oh, a storm is threatening my very life today
If I don’t get some shelter, oh yeah I’m gonna fade away
War, children, it’s just a shot away, it’s just a shot away
War, children, it’s just a shot away, it’s just a shot away

See the fire is sweeping our very street today
Burns like a red coal carpet, mad bull lost its way
War, children, it’s just a shot away, it’s just a shot away
War, children, it’s just a shot away, it’s just a shot away

Rape, murder, it’s a shot away, it’s just a shot away
Rape, murder, it’s a shot away, it’s just a shot away
Rape, murder, it’s a shot away, it’s just a shot away
Mmm the flood is threatening my very life away
Gimmie, gimmie shelter or I’m gonna fade away
War, children, it’s just a shot away, it’s just a shot away
It’s just a shot away, it’s just a shot away

I tell you
Love, sister, it’s just a kiss away, it’s just a kiss away
It’s just a kiss away, it’s just a kiss away
