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 fateful day
|
We found ourselves down Mexico way
|
The town, the mayor, the P.T.A.
|
Pleading on their knees with us all to stay
|
|
We'd 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
|
Lonesome nights in a cowboy bed
|
There'd be a bride for every man
|
Who chased away the evil gang
|
Love is stronger than justice
|
Love is thicker than blood
|
Love, love, 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 los se?ritas
|
The town mayor was happy, but his face was glum
|
The maidens numbered only one
|
There weren't 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, love, 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
|
The other six are singing in heaven
|
For love is stronger than justice
|
Love is thicker than blood
|
Love, love, love is stronger than justice
|
Love is a big fat river in flood
|
|
Love is stronger than justice
|
Love is thicker than blood
|
Love, love, love is stronger than justice
|
Love is a big fat river in flood
|
Love is a big fat river in flood
|
