Peace Call
Words and music by Woody Guthrie

Peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace.
I hear the bugle sounding,
Booming around my land, my city and my town;
Peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace.
I hear the horn and voice ring louder,
Now my bugle calls for peace.
Open your eyes to the paradise,
To the peace of the heavenly angels,
Chase away that warful shadow dancing on your wall;
Look to the skies of peace and pray,
To the peace of the heavenly Father;
Get ready for the bugle call of peace.
Peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace.
I hear the bugle sounding,
Booming around my land, my city and my town;
Peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace.
I hear the horn and voice ring louder,
Now my bugle calls for peace.
Thick war clouds will throw dead shadows,
Darkening the world around you,
But in my light of peace your dark illusions fall;
Think and pray my union way,
Kiss everybody around you;
Get ready for my bugle call of peace.
Peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace.
I hear the bugle sounding,
Booming around my land, my city and my town;
Peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace.
I hear the horn and voice ring louder,
Now my bugle calls for peace.
If these war storms fill your heart
With a thousand kinds of worry,
Keep to my road of peace, you’ll never have to fear;
Keep in the sun and look around
In the path of peace and plenty;
Get ready for my bugle call of peace.
Peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace.
I hear the bugle sounding,
Booming around my land, my city and my town;
Peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace.
I hear the horn and voice ring louder,
Now my bugle calls for peace.
I’ll clear my house of the weeds of fear
And turn to the friends around me,
With my smile of peace, I’ll greet you one and all;
I’ll work, I’ll sing, I’ll dance, I’ll fight
Of the peaceful union spirit;
Get ready for my bugle call of peace.
Peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace.
I hear the bugle sounding,
Booming around my land, my city and my town;
Peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace.
I hear the horn and voice ring louder,
Now my bugle calls for peace.
Peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace.
I hear the bugle sounding,
Booming around my land, my city and my town;
Peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace.
I hear the voice and horn ring,
Louder now my bugle calls for peace.
