Soldier Of Plenty Lyrics - Jackson Browne

God is great, God is good 

He guards your neighborhood 

Though it's generally understood 

Not quite the way you would 

You try to take the slack 

Stay awake and watch his back 

But something happens every now and then 

And someone breaks into the promised land 

Ah boy boy 

This world is not your toy 

This world is long on hunger 

This world is short on joy

A-E-I-O 

You speak as if you know 

What's good for everyone 

What's good in what you've done? 

What's good about a world in which 

War rages at a fever pitch 

And people die for the little things 

A little corn, a little beans 

 

Ah boy boy 

This world is not your toy 

This world is, this world is 

Long on hunger 

Short on joy 

How much longer 

You gonna keep the world hungry boy?

You measure peace with guns 

Progress in mega-tons 

Who's left when the war is won? 

Soldier of misfortune-- 

Soldier of an angry call 

Soldier on foreign soil 

I'm not here to fight your war 

I know what you're fighting for 

 

Ah boy boy 

This world is not your toy 

This world is, this world is 

Long on hunger 

Short on joy 

How much longer 

You gonna keep the world hungry boy?
