One tin soldier All the treasure buried there.

Listen people to a story Now the valley cried with anger,

That was written long ago, Mount your horses, draw your swords

'bout a kingdom on a mountain And they killed the mountain people,

And the valley folks below. So they won their just rewards

On the mountain was a treasure Now they stood before the treasure

Hidden deep beneath a stone, On the mountain dark and red

And the valley people swore Turned the stone and looked beneath it

They'd have it for their very own. Peace on earth, was all it said.

Go ahead and hate your neighbor, Go ahead and hate your neighbor,

Go ahead and cheat a friend. Go ahead and cheat and friend,

Do it in the name of heaven, Do it in the name of heaven,

You can justify it in the end. You can justify it in the end.

There won't be any trumpets blowing, There won't be any trumpets blowing

Come the judgment day, Come the judgment day,

On the bloody morning after On the bloody morning after

One tin soldier rides away. One tin soldier rides away.

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,
