Down by Seneca

*Sung to the tune of "Down by the Riverside"

Gonna lay down my burden

Down by Seneca, down by Seneca, down by Seneca

Gonna lay down my burden

Down by Seneca, down by Seneca.

Chorus:

We ain't gonna study war no more, we ain't gonna study war no more,

We ain't gonna study war no, study war no more.

We ain't gonna study war no more, we ain't gonna study war no more,

We ain't gonna study war no more.

Gonna get rid of those nuclear bombs

Down by Seneca, down by Seneca, down by Seneca

Gonna get rid of those nuclear bombs

Down by Seneca, down by Seneca.

Gonna sing like a snow white dove

Down by Seneca, down by Seneca, down by Seneca

Gonna sing like a snow white dove

Down by Seneca, down by Seneca.

We're all gonna live in peace

Down by Seneca, down by Seneca, down by Seneca

We're all gonna live in peace

Down by Seneca, down by Seneca.
