[00:17.38]Listen children to a story,
[00:20.26]That was written long ago.
[00:23.03]About a kingdom on a mountain,
[00:25.72]And the valley folk below.
[00:28.42]On the mountain was a treasure,
[00:31.35]Buried deep beneath a stone,
[00:34.43]And the valley people swore,
[00:37.09]They'd have it for they're very own.
[00:42.03]Go ahead and hate your neighbor,
[00:44.78]Go ahead and cheat a friend.
[00:47.67]Do it in the name of heaven,
[00:50.75](You can) justify it in the end.
[00:53.17]There won't be any trumpets blowin'
[00:55.94]Come the judgement day.
[00:58.72]On the bloody morning after,
[01:04.21]One tin soldier rides away.
[01:11.64]So the people of the valley,
[01:14.34]Sent a message up the hill.
[01:17.23]Asking for the buried treasure,
[01:20.11]Tons of gold for which they'd kill.
[01:22.89]Came an answer, from the kingdom,
[01:25.54]“With our brothers, we will share, “
[01:28.57]All the secrets of our mountain,
[01:30.64]All the riches buried there.”
[01:39.22]Now the valley cried with anger,
[01:41.93]“Mount your horses, “
[01:43.71]Draw your sword”
[01:44.84]And they killed the mountain people,
[01:47.63]So they won their just reward.
[01:50.51]Now they stood beside the treasure
[01:53.24]On the mountain dark and red,
[01:56.10]Turned the stone and looked beneath it,
[01:59.69]“Peace on earth” “
[02:01.41]Was all it said.
[02:05.44]Go ahead and hate your neighbor,
[02:08.25]Go ahead and cheat a friend.
[02:11.04]Do it in the name of heaven,
[02:13.47](You can) justify it in the end.
[02:16.70]There won't be any trumpets blowin'
[02:19.03]Come the judgement day.
[02:22.07]On the bloody morning after,
[02:27.42]One tin soldier rides away.
[02:35.16]Go ahead and hate your neighbor,
[02:37.83]Go ahead and cheat a friend.
[02:40.39]Do it in the name of heaven,
[02:43.44](You can) justify it in the end.
[02:46.36]There won't be any trumpets blowin'
[02:48.76]Come the judgement day.
[02:51.76]On the bloody morning after,
[02:57.18]One tin soldier rides away.
