Lyrics
With cross in hand they rode the land
from the cliffs to the foreign shores
No bible verse could save the worst from the fields of blood and gore
Thou shalt not kill for it is God's will, a crusade for conformity
Spare not the man nor woman or child, who's not on bended knee
Gold and Guns will get the job done
They're coming for your share so you better well run
It's not what they say, It's not what they said
Why they make their living from the dead
With a love for the crown that knows no
bounds, steal the food from the children's hand
They did it for the crown,
they did it for the flag, the crime against their fellow man
A living hell no man could tell, a plate filled with only kale
One million fled,
one million starved, one million lived to tell the tale
Gold and Guns will get the job done
They're coming for your share so you better well run
It's not what they say, It's not what they said
Why they make their living from the dead
White blood spills on Red land but the colors never blend
For some it was the beginning, others it was the end
With lies and guns and whiskey, they paved the trail of tears
Freedom for the ones with flags, fences for the ones they feared
Gold and Guns will get the job done
They're coming for your share so you better well run
It's not what they say, It's not what they said
Why they make their living from the dead
A circle is never broken, if you never see the end
Brothers who've never spoken can turn foe into a friend
Through centuries of humanity still stands the Golden Rule
That gold and guns will get the job done to take your heart and soul
Gold and Guns will get the job done
They're coming for your share so you better well run
It's not what they say, It's not what they said
Why they make their living from the dead
