Hey Geronimo
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
White men heard the war drums
Thumping in the night
So they rode their wagons
In a circle up tight
Said that in 100 years
Won't be any red men left around here
Maybe in 100 years
They'll forget your trail of tears
So i said
Hey geronimo
They're still stealing your horses
Don't you let 'em go, this time
Hey geronimo
They're still stealing your... horses
I see your turquoise
Ain't covered up with blood
I see your silver eagle
Face down in the mud, yeah
Maybe 100 years
Your people will be free
Maybe in 100 years
They'll forget your wounded knee
So i said
Hey geronimo
They're still stealing your horses
Don't you let 'em go, no, no
Hey geronimo
They're still stealing your... horses
The hawk and the sparrow
And the wolf and the buffalo
Wanted you to know, yeah
Listened to the red man
Better listen to me good
There are still some evil men
Who'd forget you if they could, yeah
Maybe in 100 years
Your land will be returned, right!
Maybe in 100 years
We pilgrims will have learned
No one's got time to burn, no...
Hey geronimo
They're still stealing your horses
Don't you let 'em go, no, no
Hey geronimo
They're still stealing your... horses
Don't you let 'em go, no, no
The hawk and the sparrow
And the wolf and the buffalo
Wanted you to know, yeah
Hey geronimo
They're still stealing your horses
Don't you let 'em go, this time
Hey geronimo
They're still stealing your... horses
Don't you let 'em go, no, no
The hawk and the sparrow
And the wolf and the buffalo
Wanted you to know
The hawk in the sparrow
And the wolf in the buffalo
Refuse to go
