If Peace Time Came
Malvina Reynolds
If peace time came, and we all got poor
And I had to go begging from door to door
I wouldn't sell my old guitar
'Cause I'd sing
Oh
If peace time came, and we all got poor
And I had no slippers to dance on the floor
I'd dance on the street in my two bare feet
And I'd sing
Oh
If peace time came, and we all got poor
We'd be so merry and feel so pure
That we'd share our bread and bounce on the bed
And we'd sing
Oh
If peace time came, and we all got poor
We'd be richеr than we ever wеre
And we'd dance in a ring with a ring jing jing
And we'd sing
Oh
