One Tin Soldier (The Legend of Billy Jack) Lyrics & Tabs by The Golden Oldies
One Tin Soldier (The Legend of Billy Jack)
guitar chords lyrics
Listen children to a story that was written long ago
bout a kingdom on a mountain and the valley folks below
on the mountain was a 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 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 the very treasure
so the people of the valley
sent a message up the hill
asking the very 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 out 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 won their just reward
now they stood beside the treasure on the mountain dark and red
turned the stone a looked beneath it
peace on earth was all it said
