Ali was growing up strong 

So I dedicate this song 

To a giant among giants 

In a league of his own 



Yes he was holding the key 

Yes he was the remedy 

Outshadowed Napoleon 

And who else it might be



Sooooooon 

trouble would arise 

Stepped into a pair of shoes 

Much too big for his size 



Sooooon 

He lied in his grave 

Smoked too many Cigarettes 

That he inhaled 



HE DIED IN GERMANY 



Our hero fled from the site 

Over the mountain high 

The Police was after him 

Every day and night 



Sooooo Never touch a gun 

A bullet in your chest is never gonna be fun 



Sooooo Never touch a gun 

Keep your finger from the trigger 

And your face in the sun



HE DIED IN GERMANY 



Fought many battles and lost 

And for too much of a cost 

Lost his feet to a land mine 

And his ears to the frost 



Sooooo Never touch a gun 

A bullet in your chest is never gonna be fun 



Sooooo Never touch a gun 

Keep your finger from the trigger 

And your face in the sun 



HE DIED IN GERMANY 



Do you see now what I mean 

Think about where you're going 

You might enter it dirty 

But come out of it clean!
