The man's too stong

[00:19.97] I am just an ageing drummer boy
[00:22.75] And in the wars I used to play
[00:24.89] And I've called a tune to many-a-torture session
[00:28.23] Now they say I am a war criminal
[00:32.27] And I'm fading away
[00:35.06] Father, please hear my confession
[00:39.35]
[00:46.85] I have legalized robbery, called it belief
[00:51.63] I have run with the money
[00:54.05] I have a-hid like a thief
[00:56.84] Re-written history with my armies and my crooks
[01:02.20] Invented memories
[01:06.76] I did burn all the books
[01:09.27] And I can still hear his laughter
[01:11.72] And I can still hear his song
[01:14.08] The man's too big
[01:18.35] The man's too strong
[01:21.14]
[01:42.21] Well, I've tried to be meek
[01:44.43] I have tried to be mild
[01:46.91] But I spat like a woman and I sulked like a child
[01:52.07] I have lived behind walls that have made me alone
[01:57.29] Striven for peace
[02:01.29] Which I never have known
[02:04.99] And I can still hear his laughter
[02:06.72] And I can still hear his song
[02:11.23] The man's too big
[02:13.58] The man's too strong
[02:16.76]
[02:37.55] Well, the sun rose on the courtyard
[02:40.14] And they all did hear him say
[02:42.40] You always was a Judas, but I backed you anyway
[02:47.49] You may have got your silver, but I swear upon my life
[02:53.02] Your sister gave me diamonds
[02:56.78] And I give 'em to your wife
[02:59.65] Oh, Father, please help me
[03:02.82] For I have done wrong
[03:07.21] The man's too big
[03:09.02] The man's too strong
[03:10.55]
