Listen children to a story
That was written long ago
About a kingdom on a mountain
And the valley folk below
On the mountain was a treasure
Buried deep beneath a stone
And the valley people swore
They'd have it for they're 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 blowin
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 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 sword
And they killed the mountain people
So they gain 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
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 blowin
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 blowin
Come the judgement day
On the bloody morning after
One tin soldier rides away
