Edenbridge - Cheyenne Spirit lyrics

rate me

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

[Chorus]

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

[Chorus]
