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
Out shadowed Napoleon
And who else it might be

Soon trouble would arise
Stepped into a pair of shoes
Much too big for his size

Soon, 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

So never touch a gun
A bullet in your chest
Is never gonna be fun

So 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

So never touch a gun
A bullet in your chest
Is never gonna be fun

So 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
