Indian Sunset - Elton John[00:00:01]
As I awoke this evening with[00:00:11]
The smell of wood smoke clinging[00:00:14]
Like a gentle cobweb hanging[00:00:17]
Upon a painted tepee[00:00:21]
Oh I went to see my chieftain[00:00:25]
With my warlance and my woman[00:00:29]
For he told us that the yellow moon would[00:00:33]
Very soon be leaving[00:00:37]
This I can't believe I said[00:00:42]
I can't believe our warlords dead[00:00:45]
Oh he would not leave the chosen ones[00:00:50]
To the buzzards and the soldiers guns[00:00:54]
Oh great father of the iroquois[00:00:59]
Ever since I was young[00:01:04]
I've read the writing of the smoke[00:01:09]
And breast fed on the sound of drums[00:01:12]
I've learned to hurl the tomahawk[00:01:18]
And ride a painted pony wild[00:01:21]
To run the gauntlet of the sioux[00:01:26]
To make a chieftains daughter mine[00:01:30]
And now you ask that I should watch[00:01:35]
The red mans race be slowly crushed[00:01:38]
What kind of words are these to hear[00:01:44]
From yellow dog whom white man fears[00:01:47]
I take only what is mine lord[00:02:38]
My pony my squaw and my child[00:02:44]
I can't stay to see you die along[00:02:52]
With my tribes pride[00:03:00]
I go to search for the yellow moon[00:03:07]
And the fathers of our sons[00:03:11]
Where the red sun sinks in the hills[00:03:18]
Of gold and the healing waters run[00:03:23]
Trampling down the prairie rose[00:03:37]
Leaving hoof tracks in the sand[00:03:44]
Those who wish to follow me[00:03:51]
I welcome with my hands[00:03:58]
I heard from passing renegades geronimo was dead[00:04:05]
Hed been laying down his weapons[00:04:17]
When they filled him full of lead[00:04:24]
Now there seems no reason[00:05:18]
Why I should carry on[00:05:20]
In this land that once was my land[00:05:25]
I can't find a home[00:05:29]
It's lonely and it's quiet[00:05:32]
And the horse soldiers are coming[00:05:36]
And I think it's time[00:05:39]
I strung my bow[00:05:41]
And ceased my senseless running[00:05:43]
For soon I'll find the yellow moon[00:05:49]
Along with my loved ones[00:05:52]
Where the buffalos graze in clover fields[00:05:55]
Without the sound of guns[00:05:59]
And the red sun sinks at last[00:06:03]
Into the hills of gold[00:06:06]
And peace to this young warrior[00:06:10]
Comes with a bullet hole[00:06:14]
