This song I had on index page to go with music, but took up alot of room. This is my favorite song in the world, it is so powerful that when I watch Billy Jack no matter how many times at end of movie makes me cry. I wanted it some where, it sends a message, but in the end... "Peace on Earth is all it says" Listen, children, to a story That was written long ago, 'bout 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 their very own. Chorus Go ahead and hate your neighbor, Go ahead and cheat a friend. Do it in the name of heaven, Justify it in the end. There won't be any trumpets blowin', Come the judgment 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." 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. 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 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 blowing Come the judgement day, On the bloody morning after.... One tin soldier rides away. |
