The lyrics are slightly different to the original. The Stones sang "war, children/it's just a shot away", "rape, murder/it's just a shot away" and "love, sister/it's just a kiss away".
This is one of several Sisters songs that juxtapose themes of violence and love. See also Ribbons, Temple of Love, Under the Gun, and probably others.
