Testo di One Tin Soldier

Listen children to a story That was written long ago About kingdom on a mountain And the valley far below On the mountain was a treasure buried deep beneath a stone And the valley people swore they'd have it for their very own Chorus: So go ahead and hate your neighbor Go ahead and cheat a friend If you can do it in the name of heaven You can justify it in the end There won't be any trumpets blowin' Come the judgement day On the bloody morning after One tin soldier rides away So the people from the valley Sent a messege up the hill Asking for the buried treasure Tons of gold for which they'd kill Came an answer from the kingdom With our brothers we will share All the secrets of our mountain All the riches buried there Now the valley cried with anger Mount your horses, draw your swords Then they killed the mountain people So they won their just reward Now they stood beside the treasure On the mountain dark and red Turned the stone and looked beneath it "Peace on Earth" was all it said (Chorus)
