Lyrics Geronimo - Shannon McNally

Geronimo

And I do it again and again
I listen for visions and missions in the wind
I won the vote but shunned the soft parade
And now I’m picking garbage, a true sage’s trade
I won every battle and lost the war
You dared me to reach for it, you dared me to know
So I drove that car just as slow as it would go
Listening for the sound of my last hope hit the ground, baby
Won every battle but lost the war
You managed to take more than I had
With your greedy treaties and your rubber badge
You may have won every battle but you lost the war
Well, I only did what I knew
Simple math, nothing more nothing less
If you hadn’t of told me I never would have guessed
How hungry was your hate, how sealed was my fate
And I won every battle but lost the war
I managed to take more than I had
With your greedy treaties and your rubber badge
You may have won every battle but you lost the war
You may have won every battle but lost the war
