Tekst :

Was the night - I was young
When my father called for his first born son
Took me place at his side
While this great chief raged in the fire light
We d reclaim days of old
If the tribe would do what his dream foretold

Praying to the vision of the promised land
Swaying to the rhythm of the drums
We were pledging our allegiance to Wevoka s plan
When the shots rang out, there soldiers all around
And their cannons put an end to our holy singin of

(OH) The first cowboys were doing the Ghostdance singin
(OH) The first cowboys were doing the Ghostdance

Hypnotized by my tale
Generations learn of the Great Betrayal long ago
At Wounded Knee
Where our grandfathers bled for what they believed
Wouldn t buy what they sold - reservation
Life for our Black Hills gold

For praying to the vision of the promised land
Swaying to the rhythm of the drums
We were pledging our allegiance to Wevoka s plan
The Great Spirit cried when our warriors fell to the hail of
The blue coat s guns (so we re singin )

(OH) The first cowboys were doing the Ghostdance singin
(OH) The first cowboys were doing the Ghostdance

For your soul, for your name
Many brave men s blood s running through your veins
Leave your mark - walk with pride
Live in honor to those who gave their lives
Ancient hearts are still seeking peace -
As you sing and dance, so you set them free

For praying to the vision of the promised land
Swaying to the rhythm of the drums
Pledging your allegiance to Wevoka s plan
By the marker that stands where our women and children
Fell to the blue coat s guns (start singin )

Praying to the vision of the promised land
Swaying to the rhythm of the drums
We were pledging our allegiance to Wevoka s plan
When the shots rang out, there soldiers all around
And their cannons put an end to our holy singin of

After so many years tryin to set it free
The pain seems to fade but it never leaves
The memories haunt me and I wish they d let me be
I gambled on love and it tore me apart
Be still, be still, be still,...

Look at the violence that rages in your heart
Screaming in silence, it s tearing you apart
Burning with vengeance, need an answer for your soul
Consider the damage, got nothing you can show

And as you travel on the road of desperation
You always wonder what your life could be
And as you re going...

We are down to the last stop
Heading for nowhere
With you walking round me
Wishing things will never had
But I m tired of places
In Saturday sunset
I m tired of living, baby let s go back...Yeah!!!
This life never changes...

Ah, no, no
Ah, no, no
Na, na, na
Na, na, na
Na, na, na
Truth will set you free
Stood before the morning s light
And ask myself am I trapped again
The more I try and see
More the circle follows me
Chasing empty signs of life
There s something fightin me

O, O, O

So don...

And give me a chance to show you that I m true
Just as if the sky were always blue
I have learned to not be here right now
I can ignore the animals in the background

It s so important to me to see you everyday
I really can t believe that I forgot...
