Love Is Stronger Than Justice (the Munificent Seven)

This is a story of seven brothersWe had the same father but different mothersWe keep together like a family shouldRoaming the country for the common goodIt came to pass one fatefull dayWe found ourselves down Mexico wayThe town, the mayor, the P.T.A.Pleading on their knees with us all to stayWe'd only stopped for a few burritosBut they told us of the trouble with los banditosA poor little town in need of aidMy brothers and me had never been afraidThe age of chivalry is not deadLonesome nights in a cowboy bedThere'd be a bride for every manWho chased away the evil gangLove is stronger than justiceLove is thicker than bloodLove is stronger than justiceLove is a big fat river in floodThe outcome was predictableOur banditos were despicableOf blood we lost a dozen litresA small price to pay for las señoritasThe town mayor was happy but his face was glumThe maidens numbered only oneBut there weren't seven brides for seven brothersI knew I had to get hid of the othersLove is stronger then justiceLove is thicker than bloodLove is stronger than justiceLove is a big fat river in floodMother told me I was the clever oneThe seventh son of a seventh sonIt all ended so happilyI settled down with the familyI look forward for a better dayBut ethical stuff never got in my wayAnd though there used to be brothers sevenThe other six are singing in heavenLove is stronger then justiceLove is thicker than bloodLove is stronger than justiceLove is a big fat river in flood
