One Tin Soldier

Listen children to a story that was written long ago
About a kingdom of a mountain and the valley from below
On the mountain was the treasure buried deep beneath the 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 can justify it in the end
There won't be and trumpets blowin come the judgement day
On the bloody morning after gloom, 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 an answer from the kingdom, with our brothers we will share
All the secrets of our mountain, of the riches buried there

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 and trumpets blowin come the judgement day
On the bloody morning after gloom, one tin soldier rides away

Now the valley cried with anger, mount your horses, draw your sword
And 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 looks beneath it ~

Peace on earth was all it said

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 and trumpets blowin come the judgement day
On the bloody morning after gloom, one tin soldier rides away
