My name, it means nothing, my age, it means less
And the country I come from is called the Midwest
Was brought up there and taught there the law 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 and the Indians fell
The cavalries charged and 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 was taught to memorize
With their guns in their hands and God on their side
Well, World War One, it came and it went
The reason for fighting I never did get
But I learned to accept it and accept it with pride
For you don't count the dead when God's on your side
And the Second World War, boys, it came to an end
We forgave the Germans and called them our friends
Though they killed six million, in the ovens they fried
The Germans now, too, have God on their side
Oh, 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
And 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, we've shot the world wide
And you never ask questions when God's on your side
For many long years I've thought about this
That Jesus Christ was betrayed by a kiss
I can't do it for you, you've got to decide
Whether Judas Iscariot had God on his side
And now, as I'm leavin', I'm weary as hell
The confusion I'm feelin' no tongue can tell
The words fill my head and they fall to the floor
If God is on our side he'll stop the next war
And the country I come from is called the Midwest
Was brought up there and taught there the law 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 and the Indians fell
The cavalries charged and 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 was taught to memorize
With their guns in their hands and God on their side
Well, World War One, it came and it went
The reason for fighting I never did get
But I learned to accept it and accept it with pride
For you don't count the dead when God's on your side
And the Second World War, boys, it came to an end
We forgave the Germans and called them our friends
Though they killed six million, in the ovens they fried
The Germans now, too, have God on their side
Oh, 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
And 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, we've shot the world wide
And you never ask questions when God's on your side
For many long years I've thought about this
That Jesus Christ was betrayed by a kiss
I can't do it for you, you've got to decide
Whether Judas Iscariot had God on his side
And now, as I'm leavin', I'm weary as hell
The confusion I'm feelin' no tongue can tell
The words fill my head and they fall to the floor
If God is on our side he'll stop the next war
