Me First And The Gimme Gimmes

Me First And The Gimme Gimmes - One Tin Soldier lyrics

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
