Version 2 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 session1
2  Now they say I am a war criminal2
3  And I'm fading away3
  Father please hear my confession  Father please hear my confession
4                                 I have legalized robbery 4
5  I have legalized robbery, called it    belief   Called                                    it a belief 5
6  I have run with the money, I have hid like a thief   I have run with the money                               6
7  Rewritten history with my armies of my crooks   And hid like a thief                 7
8  Invented memories, I did burn all the books                        I have re-written history             8
9                                       With my armies and my crooks 9
10  And I can still hear his laughter and I can still hear his song   Invented memories                                                                       10
11  The man's too big, the man's too strong   I did burn all the books              11
12                                             And I can still hear his laughter 12
13  Well I have tried to be meek and I have tried to be mild   And I can still hear his song                                    13
14  But I spat like a woman and I sulked like a child   The man's too big                                           14
15  I have lived behind walls, that have made me alone   The man's too strong                                      15
16  Striven for peace, which I never have known                 Well,I                               have tried to be meek 16
17                                       And I have tried to be mild 17
18  And I can still hear his laughter and I can still hear his song   But I spat like a woman                                                18
19  The man's too big, the man's too strong   And sulked like a child                     19
20                                   I have lived behind walls 20
21  Well the sun rose on the courtyard and they all did hear him say   That have made me alone                                                      21
22  You always was a judas but I got you anyway   Striven for peace                                     22
23  You may have got your silver but I swear upon my life   Which                                    I never have known       23
24  Your sister gave me diamonds and I gave them to your wife   And                                  I can still hear his laughter 24
25                                         And I can still hear his song 25
26  Oh father please help me for I have done wrong   The man's too big                                26
  The man's too big, the man's too strong   The man's too strong
4  Well the sun rose on the courtyard4
5  And they all did hear him say5
6  'You always were a Judas6
7  But I got you anyway7
8  You may have got your silver8
9  But I swear upon my life9
10  Your sister gave me diamonds10
11  And I gave them to your wife'11
12  Oh father please help me12
13  For I have done wrong13
14  The man's too big14
15  The man's too strong15
