Sting & Police - Love Is Stronger Than Justice (The Munificent Seven) (Ten Summoner's Tales)

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 fateful 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
Lonesome 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 los se駉ritas
The town mayor was happy, but his face was glum
The maidens numbered only one
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
The other six are singing in heaven
For 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

One of my favorite songs from the White Album. Not as energetic as some of the other stuff, but the slow tempo works beautifully here.

What gem of a mystical sounding song. The lyrics are magical. The person for which it was written for must have been quite the GAL:) Well worth waiting for!!?

Prudence Farrow was spending all her time inside. John kept bugging her to come out. He had a fancy for her but his wife was with him there. Maharishi had a liking for one of the gals so the guys realized he was human after all. A great song and Donavan taught some of the finger licks to John. Disclaimer: Don't ask me if I was there.

This song was written about Prudence Farrow, who is the younger sister of Mia Farrow. They were both present with the Beatles when they went to India at the ashram with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, along with fellow musicians Donovan and Mike Love (from the Beach Boys).
