They were attacked by surprise

In the middle of the night

They didn't stand a single chance

A single chance to fight After the battle they gathered around the king

They had never seen that man so sad

I'm riding out to get those men

Who hurt my people bad, so bad The king will return with gold in his hand

The castle will burn in the enemy land

The king will return with gold in his hand

The castle will burn in the enemy land

Woah, he will save our people When two springs had passed

A messenger came down the track

He said that he had heard great news

The king is coming back Oh, the time he was gone

They suffered bad in misery

They didn't know the way

Everyone was shouting, save our kingdom now The king will return with gold in his hand

The castle will burn in the enemy land

The king will return with gold in his hand

The castle will burn in the enemy land

Woah, he will save our people They suffered bad in pain

The time he was away

But maybe now they could survive

Now they could survive When the king came down the hill

To his people and his lands

There were many tears that touched the ground

Made marks in the sand Yes, now they could start all over again

And live in peace throughout the time

Everyone was shouting

When the king came down the hill The king is returning with gold in his hand

The castle is burning in the enemy land

The king is returning with gold in his hand, ooh baby

The castle is burning in the enemy land Yeah, the king is returning with gold in his hand

The castle is burning in the enemy land

The king is returning with gold in his hand

The castle is burning in the enemy land The king is returning with gold in his hand

The castle is burning in the enemy land

The king is returning with gold in his hand

The castle is burning in the enemy land The king is returning with gold in his hand
