There won't be peace on earth
Till man's at peace with woman
There'll never be peace on earth
Till man's at peace with his girl
There's always going to be fighting
There'll always be that push and shove
In this world, it's too much liking
And there just ain't (just ain't) enough love
Do you see what I see
If you do respond to me
There won't be peace on earth
Till man's at peace with woman
There won't be peace on this ground
Till man and woman sit down
There's always gonna be hatred
'Cause everybody's just standing by
Let the giver do the taking
'Cause right now it's worth a try (worth a try)
How long will you say
And do things some other way
You know I'm really surprised we waited so long
There won't be peace on earth
Till man's at peace with woman
There won't be peace on this ground
Till man and woman sit down
There's always gonna be fighting
There'll always be that push and shove
In this world, it's too much liking
And there just ain't (just ain't) enough love
Listen to me, you know
There just ain't enough love
There just ain't no respect
There just, just ain't enough love
No understanding
There'll never, never be no peace
Till man's at peace with his woman
