Tug Of War Lyrics

Paul Mccartney

IT'S A TUG OF WAR,
WHAT WITH ONE THING AND ANOTHER,
IT'S A TUG OF WAR.
WE EXPECTED MORE
BUT WITH ONE THING AND ANOTHER,
WE WERE TRYIN' TO OUTDO EACH OTHER
IN A TUG OF WAR.

IN ANOTHER WORLD,
IN ANOTHER WORLD WE COULD
STAND ON TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN WITH OUR FLAG UNFURLED.
IN A TIME TO COME,
IN A TIME TO COME WE WILL BE DANCING TO THE BEAT
PLAYED ON A DIFF'RENT DRUM.

IT'S A TUG OF WAR,
THOUGH I KNOW I MUSTN'T GRUMBLE,
IT S A TUG OF WAR.
BUT I CAN'T LET GO,
IF I DO, YOU'LL TAKE A TUMBLE
AND THE WHOLE THING IS GOING TO CRUMBLE,
IT'S A TUG OF WAR.

(Pushing, pushing,
Pulling, pulling,
Pushing and pulling)

IN YEARS TO COME, THEY MAY DISCOVER
WHAT THE AIR WE BREATHE AND THE LIFE WE LEAD ARE ALL ABOUT.
BUT IT WON'T BE SOON ENOUGH, (soon enough)
SOON ENOUGH FOR ME.
NO, IT WON'T BE SOON ENOUGH, (it won't be soon enough for me)
SOON ENOUGH FOR ME.

IN ANOTHER WORLD
WE COULD STAND ON TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN WITH OUR FLAG UNFURLED.
IN A TIME TO COME,
WE WILL BE DANCING TO THE BEAT PLAYED ON A DIFF'RENT DRUM,
WE WILL BE DANCING TO THE BEAT PLAYED ON A DIFF'RENT DRUM,
WE WILL BE DANCING TO THE BEAT PLAYED ON A DIFF'RENT DRUM.

IT'S A TUG OF WAR, (a tug of war, a tug of war)
WHAT WITH ONE THING AND ANOTHER,
IT'S A TUG OF WAR.
WE EXPECTED MORE
BUT WITH ONE THING AND ANOTHER,
WE WERE TRYIN' TO OUTSCORE EACH OTHER
IN A TUG OF WAR

(Pushing, pushing,
Pulling, pulling,
Pushing and pulling)
