I Did Something For Peace Today

Lyrics

I stayed away from trouble, I did not fight

No bad language, my words were kind

I DID SOMETHING FOR PEACE TODAY

I took good care of my pet today

Food and water, then we went to play

I DID SOMETHING FOR PEACE TODAY

SOMETHING GOOD IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD

HAPPENED BECAUSE OF ME

SOMETHING GOOD IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD

CALLED PEACE

I shook my rattles and I played my drums

Blessed this Earth with scents and songs

I DID SOMETHING FOR PEACE TODAY

I took good care of my body today

Brushed my teeth and I washed my face

I DID SOMETHING FOR PEACE TODAY (CHORUS)

I said “Hello” to somebody

I wore a smile for all to see

I DID SOMETHING FOR PEACE TODAY

I kept my mind on happy things

Saw the best in everything

I DID SOMETHING FOR PEACE TODAY (CHORUS)
