Love is stronger than justice [Russian translation]
Love is stronger than justice [Russian translation]
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 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 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, 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.
There other six are singing in heaven.
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.
