One tin soldierListen people to a story That was written long ago,'bout a kingdom on a mountainAnd the valley folks below.On the mountain was a treasureHidden 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 can justify it in the end.There won't be any trumpets blowing, Come the judgment day,On the bloody morning afterOne 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 kingdom, With our brothers we will share,All the riches of the mountain, Letras de cancionesAll the treasure buried there.Now the valley cried with anger, Mount your horses, draw your swordsAnd they killed the mountain people, So they won their just rewardsNow they stood before the treasure On the mountain dark and redTurned the stone and looked beneath itPeace on earth, was all it said.Go ahead and hate your neighbor, Go ahead and cheat and friend,Do it in the name of heaven, You can justify it in the end.There won't be any trumpets blowing Come the judgment day,On the bloody morning afterOne tin soldier rides away.
