Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee lyrics

Ain't Gonna Study War blues lyrics

Chorus: I ain't gonna study the war no more,
Ain't gonna study the war no more,
Ain't gonna study war no more,
Study the war no more,
I ain't gonna study war no more,
Ain't gonna study the war no more,
Ain't gonna study war no more.
I'm gonna lay down my sword and shield,
Down by the riverside,
Oh, well, it's down by the riverside,
I'm gonna lay down my sword and shield,
Down by the riverside,
To study war no more.
Chorus
I'm gonna try on my long white robe,
Down by the riverside,
Lord, down by the riverside,
I'm gonna try on my long white robe,
Down by the riverside,
To study war no more.
Chorus
I'm gonna put on my travellin' shoes,
Down by the riverside,
Lord, down by the riverside,
Lord, down by the riverside,
I'm gonna put on my travellin' shoes,
Down by the riverside,
To study war no more.
Chorus
