Aurora borealis
The icy sky at night
Paddles cut the water
In a long and hurried flight
From the white man
to the fields of green
And the homeland
we've never seen.

They killed us in our tepee
And they cut our women down
They might have left some babies
Cryin' on the ground
But the firesticks
and the wagons come
And the night falls
on the setting sun.

They massacred the buffalo
Kitty corner from the bank
The taxis run across my feet
And my eyes have turned to blanks
In my little box
at the top of the stairs
With my Indian rug
and a pipe to share.

1. "Maybe Marlon Brando

would be there by the fire
sit and talk of Hollywood
and the good things there for hire . . ."

Great song.

4. p.s.

if you want to listen to it, go to this site I found during my time in China. Check the box of the song(s) you want to hear (Pocahontas is #19) and scroll to the bottom. There are three white buttons with gold trim. Click the button on the right, the one with 4 Chinese characters. A window will pop-up and you can listen. Enjoy!
