Love Is Stronger Than Justice (the Munificent Seven) Lyrics - Ten Summoner's Tales - Sting

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 

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 

Lomesome nights in a coyboy bed 

There'd 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 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 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
