Up The Junction
Manfred Mann
With God On Our Side
Manfred Mann
Words and Music by Bob Dylan
My name it is nothing, my age it means less
I was taught and brought up there its laws to abide
The country I come from is a part of the Free West
And that the land that I live in has God on its side
Oh the history books tell it, they tell it so well
The cavalries charged, the Indians fell
The cavalries charged, the Indians died
For the country was young with God on its side
Oh the first World War, it came and it went
The reason for fighting I never could get
But I learned to accept it, accept it with pride
For you don't count the dead when God's on your side
And then the second World War, it came to an end
We forgave the Germans and now we are friends
Though they murdered six million, in the ovens they fried
The Germans now, too, have God on their side
And if fire them we're forced to, why then fire them we must
But now we have weapons of chemical dust
One push of the button and a shot the worldwide
`tho many a long hour I've thought on this
And you never ask questions when God's on your side
But I can't think for you, you willhave to decide
That Jesus Christ was betrayed by a kiss
Whether Judas Iscariot had God on his side
And now as I leave you, I'm weary as hell
The words fill my head and drop to the floor
The confusion I'm feelin', there ain't no tongue can tell
Transcribed by Ronald E. Hontz
That if God's on our side, he'll stop the next war.
