Where Have All the Flowers Gone? (Live, 1993)
[Intro]
Hey, I got an old song
Maybe some of you might like to help me sing it
I'm gonna ask my grandson, Tao Rodriguez, to come up here and help me
[Verse 1]
Where have all the flowers gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the flowers gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the flowers gone?
Girls have picked them, every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?
[Verse 2]
Where have all the young girls gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the young girls gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the young girls gone? (Taken husbands)
Taken husbands, every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?
[Verse 3]
Where have all the young men gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the young men gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the young men gone? (Gone for soldiers)
Gone for soldiers, every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?
[Verse 4]
Where have all the soldiers gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the soldiers gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the soldiers gone? (Gone to graveyards)
Gone to graveyards, every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?
[Verse 5]
Where have all the graveyards gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the graveyards gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the graveyards gone? (Covered with flowers)
Covered with flowers, every one
When will (We) we ever learn?
When will we ever learn?
