《The King’s Horses》歌词

[00:03:42] the first time that I heard them coming by

[00:03:42] there was a sound like thunder from the sky

[00:03:42] and mama said "don't run and hide"

[00:03:42] it's not the thunder but the men who ride

[00:03:42] the king's horses

[00:03:42] the men sat off outside our little inn

[00:03:42] the commendant got sight of me and grinned

[00:03:42] he said while mama's eyes went wide

[00:03:42] tonight we'll take your daddy out to ride

[00:03:42] the king's horses

[00:03:42] for a king is a king and a peasant is a peasant

[00:03:42] and the laws are always made for the king

[00:03:42] and the king's men are payed and they do what he tells them to do

[00:03:42] so when they were all finished my father was dead

[00:03:42] and I began to hate the men who rode

[00:03:42] the king's horses

[00:03:42] I swore that someday they would bleed

[00:03:42] the same way that my father did

[00:03:42] the way to satisfy my soul

[00:03:42] could only be to k**l the men who rode

[00:03:42] the king's horses

[00:03:42] the time went by and I went big and strong

[00:03:42] I still remember those who did me wrong

[00:03:42] I practiced hard with hands and feet

[00:03:42] still dreaming of the day when I will meet

[00:03:42] the king's horses

[00:03:42] but the king is the king and a man is a man

[00:03:42] when you're poor you're not hard to pursuade

[00:03:42] and the king had the money, and I had the hunger and strength

[00:03:42] and he saw I was strong and he bought me

[00:03:42] and I forgot my holy oath and rode among

[00:03:42] the king's horses

[00:03:42] and so with pain I had to hide

[00:03:42] the crying voice I heard inside

[00:03:42] the only way I could survive

[00:03:42] was to become one of the men who ride

[00:03:42] the king's horses

[00:03:42] I've often thought that it is very strange

[00:03:42] the power and the money make you change

[00:03:42] today I k**l and R**e and fight

[00:03:42] together with the ruthless men who ride

[00:03:42] the king's horses
