The Nights - Lee Hazlewood[00:00:00]

Written by：Lee Hazlewood/Mats Olsson[00:00:00]

Her skin was the color[00:00:11]

Of the mountains' first winter snow[00:00:14]

His skin was the color[00:00:17]

Of the hot sun summer glow[00:00:19]

And they met by a river called Okemah[00:00:22]

In an August of another time[00:00:25]

She fell in love with this red man[00:00:28]

And left her people behind[00:00:31]

And she learned these things[00:00:33]

The ways of a red man are lonely[00:00:36]

And his woman can expect little more[00:00:39]

And a day filled with hard work and sorrow[00:00:42]

And so she lived for[00:00:46]

The nights the nights[00:00:48]

And they followed his tribe[00:00:52]

On a hard trail to the Dakotas far away[00:00:56]

And they hunted a big buffalo[00:00:59]

And they heard the old chief say[00:01:01]

The white man has walked here before us[00:01:05]

And killed buffalo for their hides[00:01:08]

And so this winter our women and children[00:01:11]

Will feel much hunger inside[00:01:14]

And she learned these things[00:01:17]

The ways of a red man are lonely[00:01:20]

And his woman can expect little more[00:01:23]

And a day filled with hard work and sorrow[00:01:25]

And so she lived for[00:01:28]

The nights the nights[00:01:31]

That winter they died by the hundreds[00:01:36]

The people of this red man's tribe[00:01:39]

She walked the cold ground[00:01:41]

And cursed the white man[00:01:44]

Who killed buffalo for their hides[00:01:45]

And they buried their mothers and fathers[00:01:47]

And their children they loved so[00:01:50]

They prayed the son god will come soon[00:01:52]

And melt the Dakota snow[00:01:55]

And she learned these things[00:01:58]

The ways of a red man are lonely[00:02:01]

And his woman can expect little more[00:02:04]

And a day filled with hard work and sorrow[00:02:06]

And so she lived for[00:02:10]

The nights the nights[00:02:12]

And the spring came early to the Dakotas that year[00:02:17]

And the buffalo numbered ten times ten[00:02:21]

They filled their stomachs[00:02:23]

Made their clothes and started their lives again[00:02:25]

And she bore her lover boy child[00:02:28]

Fulfilled the promise of spring[00:02:31]

And from old comes new[00:02:34]

And new is life and life is an eternal thing[00:02:36]

And she learned these things[00:02:39]

The ways of a red man are lonely[00:02:42]

And his woman can expect little more[00:02:45]

And a day filled with hard work and sorrow[00:02:48]

And so she lived for[00:02:51]

The nights the nights[00:02:53]

The nights the nights[00:02:58]
