[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Yeah, this storm is threatening
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Ooh yeah, I'm gonna fade away
[Chorus]
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
Yeah!
Whoo!
[Verse 2]
Yeah, see the fire is sweeping
Our very street today
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, it's just a shot away
Yeah!
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Rape, murder!
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away
Rape, murder!
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away
Hey!
Yeah!
[Verse 3]
Yeah, and the flood's threatening
My very life today
Gimme, gimme shelter
Or I'm going to fade away
[Chorus]
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
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Outro]
I tell you love, sister
It's just a kiss away
Love, sister
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away, yeah
It's just a kiss away, yeah
Oh yeah!
Kiss, kiss, a kiss away
Kiss, kiss, a kiss away
Kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss
Kiss away
