Mr. Custer

(that famous day in history the men of the 7th cavalry went riding on)

(and from the rear a voice was heard)

(a brave you man with a trembling word rang loud and clear)

What am i doin' here??

Please mr. custer, i don't wanna go

Hey, mr. custer, please don't make me go

I had a dream last night about the comin' fight

Somebody yelled "attack"

And there i stood with a arrow in my back

Please mr. custer, i don't wanna go (forward ho), aaww

Spoken:

Look at them bushes out there

They're moving and there's a injun behind every one

Hey, mr. custer

You mind if i be excused the rest of the afternoon?

Hey cahrlie, duck yer head

Hmm, you're a little bit late on that one, charlie

Hooh, i bet that smarts

(they were sure of victory, the men of the 7th cavalry, as they rode on)

(but then from the rear a voice was heard)

(that same brave voice with the trembling word rang loud and clear)

What am i doin' here??

Please mr. custer, i don't wanna go

Listen, mr. custer, please don't make me go

There's a redskin a'waitin' out there, just fixin to take my hair

A coward i've been called cuz i don't wanna wind up dead or bald

Please mr. custer, i don't wanna go (forward ho), aaww

Spoken:

I wonder what the injun word for friend is

Let's see friend kemo sabe, that's it

Kemo sabe, hey out there kemo sabe

Nope, that itn't it

Look at them durned injuns

They're runnin' around like a bunch of wild indians-heh heh, heh
