Indian Sunset

As I awoke this evening with the smell of wood smoke clinging [00:00:22]

Like a gentle cobweb hanging upon a painted tepee [00:00:30]

He went to see my chieftain with my warlance and my woman [00:00:38]

For he told us that the yellow moon would very soon be leaving [00:00:46]

Oh this I cant believe I said I cant believe our warlords dead [00:00:55]

He would not leave the chosen ones [00:01:04]

To the buzzards and the soldiers guns [00:01:07]

Oh great father of the iroquois ever since I was young [00:01:13]

I've read the writing of the smoke [00:01:21]

And breast fed on the sound of drums [00:01:25]

I've learned to hurl the tomahawk and ride a painted pony wild [00:01:30]

To run the gauntlet of the sioux [00:01:38]

To make a chieftains daughter mine [00:01:41]

And now you ask that I should watch [00:01:46]

The red mans race be slowly crushed [00:01:50]

What kind of words are these to hear [00:01:54]

From yellow dog whom white man fears [00:01:58]

I take only what is mine lord my pony my squaw and my child [00:02:30]

I can't stay to see you die along with my tribes pride [00:02:45]

I go to search for the yellow moon and the fathers of our sons [00:02:59]

Where the red sun sinks [00:03:13]

In the hills of gold and the healing waters run [00:03:16]

Trampling down the prairie rose leaving hoof tracks in the sand [00:03:33]

Those who wish to follow me I welcome with my hands [00:03:48]

I heard from passing renegades geronimo was dead [00:04:02]

He'd been laying down his weapons [00:04:14]

When they filled him full of lead [00:04:21]

Now there seems no reason why I should carry on [00:05:17]

In this land that once was my land I can't find a home [00:05:25]

It's lonely and its quiet and the horse soldiers are coming [00:05:32]

And I think its time I strung my bow [00:05:39]

And ceased my senseless running [00:05:43]

For soon I'll find the yellow moon along with my loved ones [00:05:49]

Where the buffalos graze in clover fields [00:05:56]

Without the sound of guns [00:06:00]

And the red sun sinks at last into the hills of gold [00:06:06]

And peace to this young warrior comes with a bullet hole [00:06:13]
