The snow is lightly falling On the soldiers' home tonight The Christmas tree in the parlor Bathes the room in light
And the young and old gather round And lift their voices to heaven in a joyous sound
"Dear Lord above, for what it's worth We at the old Soldiers' home Pray for peace on earth No more war, never no more, bring 'em all home Peace on earth"
Pete Seeger's on the stereo Singing songs of peace A few tears, a few smiles Private memories
And the young and old gather round And lift their voices to heaven in a joyous sound
"Dear Lord above, for what it's worth We at the old Soldiers' home Pray for peace on earth No more war, never no more, bring 'em all home
The old boys from the Big One The younger kids from 'Nam All grateful to be together and free As brothers-in-peace No longer brothers-in-arms
Last year, this young girl from the university She called up, said she's doing this paper for school And could she talk to me
She's got a bad attitude that I've heard before She won't catch anybody hear singing the glories of war
"Dear Lord above, for what it's worth We at the old Soldiers' home Pray for peace on earth No more war, never no more, bring 'em all home Peace on earth Peace on earth Bring 'em all home Peace on earth No more war"
