Version 1 of the lyrics
1	I'm just an aging drummer boy and in the wars I used to play						I'm just                          and ageing drummer boy	1
2	And I've called the tune          to many a torching session						And in         the wars I used to play	2
3	Now they say I am a war criminal and I'm fading away						And I've called the tune	3
1							To many a torture session	1
2							Now they say I am a war criminal	2
3							And I'm fading away	3
	Father please hear my confession						Father please hear my confession
4	I have legalized robbery, called it belief						I have legalised robbery	4
5	I have run with the money, I have hid like a thief						Called it                                             a belief	5
6	Rewritten history      with my armies of my crooks						I have run with the money	6
7	Invented memories, I did burn all the books						And hid like a theif	7
8							I have re-written history	8
9	And I can still hear his laughter and I can still hear his song						With my armies                             and my crooks	9
10	The man's too big, the man's too strong						Invented memories	10
11							I did burn all the books	11
12	Well I have tried to be meek and I have tried to be mild						And I can still hear his laughter	12
13	But I spat like a woman and I sulked like a child						And I can still hear his song	13
14	I have lived behind walls, that have made me alone						The man's too big	14
15	Striven for peace, which I never have known						The man's too strong	15
1								1
16	And I can still hear his laughter and I can still hear his song						Well I have tried to be meek	16
17	The man's too big, the man's too strong						And I have tried to be mild	17
18							But I spat like a woman	18
19	Well the sun rose on the courtyard and they all did hear him say						And sulked like a child	19
20	You always was a judas but I got you anyway						I have lived behind walls	20
21	You may have got your silver but I swear upon my life						That      have made me alone	21
22	Your sister gave me diamonds and I gave them to your wife						Striven for peace	22
23							Which I have never known	23
24	Oh father please help me for I have done wrong						And                                I can still hear his laughter	24
	The man's too big, the man's too strong						And I can still hear his song
4							The man's too big	4
5							The man's too strong	5
6								6
7							Well the sun rose on the courtyard	7
8							And they all did hear him say	8
9							'You always were a Judas	9
10							But I got you anyway	10
11							You may have got your silver	11
12							But I swear upon my life	12
13							Your sister gave me diamonds	13
14							And I gave them to your wife'	14
15							Oh father please help me	15
16							For I have done wrong	16
17							The man's too big	17
18							The man's too strong	18
