Cheyenne Spirit Lyrics

Out in the prairie

the bison dared to roam

The crying of a lone shot

claimed they're forever gone

High in the breezing winds

an eagle dared to fly

For the white man's sake the covenant

was just a lie

Out in the flowing streams

the beaver dared to build

The never ending ignorance

the paleface's guilt

A single tent was left

lonesome in the woods

When the cannons spoke the words

Murderers took off the hoods

For all times rise

Cheyenne spirit rise

By the grace of all your wisdom

In the hunting grounds it flies

Chase the track and ride free

Eternal unity

Let the flutes play for a last time

Ban the white man's tyranny

And they came riding with their hate

And marching with their greed

External territories

Served their senseless need

But they stood tall in their own fate

They knew their bloody way

Along the line of fire

Into the grand decay
