Trail Of Tears |
Liars and murderers, pale faced intruders |
Came one day to our shores |
Years of deceit and injustice and greed |
Led to the crimes and the wars |
Hopelessly wronged, dragged from our homes |
Placed into stockades |
Loaded on wagons as cattle or sheep |
Silently filled with this rage |
And all through the nights, we sang and we cried |
Holding on dearly |
What gives you the right to do this |
Who are the savages now! |
It's a trail of tears, keep home fires burning |
We're on a trail of tears, to were dreams go to die |
Suffering and dying, enduring the cold |
Oppression without regret |
Wantonly stealing our land and our gold |
The Cherokee will not forget |
And all through the nights, we sang and we cried |
Holding on dearly |
Four thousand graves along the way |
Who are the savages now! |
It's a trail of tears, keep home fires burning |
We're on a trail of tears, to were dreams go to die |
It's a trail of tears, for our homes we are yearning |
We're on a trail of tears, to were dreams go to die |
