One Tin Soldier - Bushman
Listen people to a story
That was written long ago
About a kingdom among a mountain
And the valley folks 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
Go ahead and hate your neighbor
Go ahead and cheat a friend
Do it in the name of heaven
You'll be justified it in the end
There won't be any trumpets blowing
Come the judgement day
On the bloody morning after
One Tin Soldier rides away
So the people of the valley
Sent a message up the hill
Asking for the buried treasure
Tons of gold for which they'd kill
Came the answer from the mountain
With our brothers we will share
All the secrets of our mountain
All the riches buried there
Now the mountain cried with anger
Mount your horses draw your swords
And they killed the valley people
So they won their just rewards
Now they stood beside the treasure
On the mountain dark and red
Turned the stone and looked beneath it
Peace On Earth is all it says
Go ahead and hate your neighbor
Go ahead and cheat a friend
Do it in the name of heaven
You can justify it in the end
There won't be any trumpets blowing
Come the judgement day
On the bloody morning after
One Tin Soldier rides away
Go ahead and hate your neighbor
Go ahead and cheat a friend
Do it in the name of heaven
You can justify it in the end
There won't be any trumpets blowing
Come the judgement day
On the bloody morning after
One Tin Soldier rides away
Away
Away
One Tin Soldier rides away
One Tin Soldier rides away
One Tin Soldier rides away
