Love Is Stronger Than Justice (The Munificent Seven) |
This is a story of seven brothers |
We had the same father but different mothers |
We keep together like a family should |
Roaming the country for the common good |
It came to pass one faithful day |
We found ourselves down mexico way |
The town, the mayor, the p.t.a. |
Pleading on their knees with us all to stay |
Wed only stopped for a few burritos |
But they told us of the trouble with los banditos |
A poor little town in need of aid |
My brothers and me had never been afraid |
The age of chivalry is not dead |
Lomesome nights in a coyboy bed |
Thered be a bride for every man |
Who chased away the evil gang |
Love is stronger than justice |
Love is a big fat river in flood |
The outcome was predictable |
Our banditos were despicable |
Of blood we lost a dozen litres |
A small price to pay for las senoritas |
The town mayor was happy but his face was glum |
The maidens numbered only one |
But there werent seven brides for seven brothers |
I knew I had to get rid of the others |
Love is stronger than justice |
Love is thicker than blood |
Love is stronger than justice |
Love is a big fat river in flood |
Mother told me I was the clever one |
The seventh son of a seventh son |
It all ended so happily |
I settled down with the family |
I look forward to a better day |
But ethical stuff never got in my way |
And though there used to be brothers seven |
There other six are singing in heaven |
Love is stronger than justice |
Love is a big fat river in flood |
