(Words and Music by Joan Baez)
2
Been sitting on old park benches
3
Brother, hasn't it been fun?
4
But you remember me from the trenches
5
I fought in World War One
6
Yes, you saw us off at the troop train
7
Smiling a brave goodbye
8
But where were you when we came home
9
To claim our apple pie
10
Oh where's our apple pie, my friends?
11
Where's our apple pie?
12
We've walked and wheeled from the battlefield
13
Now where's our apple pie?
14
World War Two was a favorite
15
God was surely on our side
16
The teenage kids enlisted with
17
The blessings of their daddys' pride
18
Well the wars may change but not so the glaze
19
In the young boys' eyes
20
When they cry out for their mamas
21
In the hours before they die
22
Oh where's our apple pie, my friends?
23
Where's our apple pie?
24
We've walked and wheeled from the battlefield
25
Now where's our apple pie?
26
I volunteered for the last one
27
And I don't want to moralize
28
But somehow I thought we deserved the best
29
For the way we threw away our lives
30
For we all believed in something
31
I know it wasn't very clear
32
But I know it wasn't rats in a hospital room
33
And a broken-down wheelchair
34
Oh where's our apple pie, my friends?
35
Where's our apple pie?
36
We've walked and wheeled from the battlefield
37
Now where's our apple pie?
38
Yes, Johnny finally got his gun
39
Before he got his apple pie
40
Now he hasn't got a hand to eat it with
41
But still he doesn't want to die
42
Because he prefers to go on fighting
43
And let his baby brother know
44
When the next time around the call goes out
45
It's "Hell no, we won't go!"
46
There'll be no World War Three, my friends
47
There'll be no World War Three
48
We've walked and wheeled from the battlefield
49
There'll be no World War Three
