Oh, a storm is threat'ning
My very life today.
If I don't get some shelter
Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away.
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away.
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away.
Ooh, see the fire sweepin'
Our very street today.
Burns like a red coal carpet
Mad bull lost its way.
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away.
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away.
The floods is threat'ning
My very life today.
Gimme, gimme shelter
Or I'm gonna fade away.
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
I tell you love, sister, it's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
Kiss away, kiss away
