Barrel of the Gun

Lyrics

(1,2,3,4) In a strange land Far from these shores Lay two men and a woman Killed by the law No matter what country Under the sun You can't mete justice From the barrel of a gun A car bomb they say The S.A.S. on offence Shot in the back Makes no difference Oh no, Oh no So no matter what country Under the sun You can't mete justice From the barrel of a gun, a gun Shoot to kill Till both sides have their fill Till both sides have their martyrs And all the kids have no fathers Oh no, oh no So, no matter what country Under the sun You can't mete justice The barrel of a gun Oh, 'til you mothers have no sons 'til your battle it is won Tell both sides They have lost All the blood that it cost So, no matter what country Under the sun You can't mete justice No, from the barrel of a gun
