  • 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 Iscari
