The Danish Peace Academy
Greenham Common Women's Peace Camp Songbook
26 Chant down Greenham
35 women, campers for peace
Breaking the law
So there'll be no more War.
We won't want your laws
We don't like your cause
We don't fight your wars
Chant down Greenham
We don't want your cruise,
We have life to lose
There's still time to choose,
Chant down Greenham.
So there'll be no more War.
35 thousand Women for peace,
Embracing the base
So there'll be no more War.
