Lyrics Alexander the Great

Near to the east

In a part of ancient Greece

In an ancient land called Macedonia

Was born a son to Philip of Macedon

The legend, his name was Alexander

At the age of nineteen he became the Macedon King and he swore to free all of Asia Minor

By the Aegean Sea

In three-three-four B.C.

He utterly beat the armies of Persia

Alexander the Great

His name struck fear into hearts of men

Alexander the Great became a legend amongst mortal men

King Darius the third defeated fled Persia

The Scythians fell by the river Jaxartes

Then Egypt fell to the Macedon King as well and he founded the city called Alexandria

By the Tigris river he met King Darius again and crushed him again in the battle of Arbela

Entering Babylon and Susa treasures he found

Took Persepolis the capital of Persia

Alexander the Great

His name struck fear into hearts of men

Alexander the Great became a god amongst mortal men

A Phrygian King had bound a chariot yoke and Alexander cut the Gordian knot

And legend said that who untied the knot he would become the master of Asia

Hellenism he spread far and wide

The Macedonian learned mind

Their culture was a western way of life

He paved the way for Christianity

Marching on

The battle weary marching side by side

Alexander's army line by line

They wouldn't follow him to India

Tired of the combat pain and the glory

Alexander the Great

His name struck fear into hearts of men

Alexander the Great

He died of fever in Babylon
