With God On Our Side

Song With God On Our Side
Artist Joan Baez
Album The First 10 Years

Lyrics

Oh my name it is nothin'
  My age it means less
  The country I come from
  Is called the Midwest
  I's taught and brought up there
  The laws to abide
  And that 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
  Oh the country was young
  With God on its side.
  
  Oh the Spanish-American
  War had its day
  And the Civil War too
  Was soon laid away
  And the names of the heroes
  I's made to memorize
  With guns in their hands
  And God on their side.
  
  Oh the First World War, boys
  It closed out its fate
  The reason for fighting
  I never got straight
  But I learned to accept it
  Accept it with pride
  For you don't count the dead
  When God's on your side.
  
  When the Second World War
  Came to an end
  We forgave the Germans
  And we were friends
  Though they murdered six million
  In the ovens they fried
  The Germans now too
  Have God on their side.
  
  I've learned to hate Russians
  All through my whole life
  If another war starts
  It's them we must fight
  To hate them and fear them
  To run and to hide
  And accept it all bravely
  With God on my side.
  
  But now we got weapons
  Of the chemical dust
  If fire them we're forced to
  Then fire them we must
  One push of the button
  And a shot the world wide
  And you never ask questions
  When God's on your side.
  
  In a many dark hour
  I've been thinkin' about this
  That Jesus Christ
  Was betrayed by a kiss
  But I can't think for you
  You'll have to decide
  Whether Judas Iscariot
  Had God on his side.
  
  So now as I'm leavin'
  I'm weary as Hell
  The confusion I'm feelin'
  Ain't no tongue can tell
  The words fill my head
  And fall to the floor
  If God's on our side
  He'll stop the next war.
我的名字毫不重要
  我的年纪也没有意义
  我的故乡
  是叫做中西部的地方
  我在那受教育在那成长
  遵纪守法
  那方我居住的土地
  有上帝与它同在
  
  历史书上
  说得挺好
  骑兵们前进
  印第安人倒下
  骑兵们前进
  印第安人死去
  那年轻的国家呀
  有上帝与它同在
  
  那场西班牙与美国的战争
  终有结束之时
  内战亦是如此
  硝烟很快散去
  英雄们的名字
  我的牢牢记住
  他们手握枪支
  有上帝与他们同在
  
  孩子,第一次世界大战
  已停止了进程
  大战的原因
  我始终没弄明白
  但我却被教会去
  满怀骄傲地接受它
  因为你不必在意死伤多少
  而上帝与你同在
  
  当二战也
  临近尾声
  我们原谅了德国人
  与他们友好相处
  纵使他们在焚炉中
  残杀了六百万人
  德国人现在也
  有上帝与他们同在
  
  我曾被教导要
  一辈子仇恨苏联
  如果再次开战
  他们就是敌人
  要恨透他们惧怕他们
  要逃命要躲藏
  要勇敢地接受这些
  想着上帝与我们同在
  
  但现在我们有了用
  化学渣滓制出的武器
  一旦我们被迫用它
  只要按一下按钮
  它就可以对着
  世界任何一地开火
  你不必多问
  只需上帝与你同在
  
  在那黑暗的岁月里
  我不停地思考这些
  耶稣基督
  被一个吻轻易出卖
  我无法替你思考
  你得自己想想
  是不是叛徒犹大
  也有上帝与他同在
  
  所以现在我离开
  精疲力竭
  我察觉到的混乱
  无可言状
  词语塞满我的大脑
  再落到地上
  如果上帝与我们同在
  他当阻止下一场战争
