I ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more
Study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more
Study war no more
Gonna walk with the Prince of Peace

Gonna put on my long white robe;
Down By the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Gonna put on my long white robe; Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Gonna lay down my sword and shield
