Marty Stuart - Wounded Knee lyrics
[Marty Stuart - Wounded Knee lyrics]
My vision's growing dim
Tell the Holy Father, that I must talk to him
Every breath I take, draws me closer home
When I cross that river, will I be alone
Won't you take my body down to Wounded Knee
Take my body down to Wounded Knee
Where the spirit can be found
There's power in the ground
The wind will set me free at Wounded knee
Behold I see a canyon where
Many souls will die
Behold I see a world that
Will always wonder why
Tell me ole Red Cloud, this vision in my head
I see 300 soldiers, am I alive or am I dead
Won't you take my body down to Wounded Knee
Take my body down to Wounded Knee
Where the spirit can be found
There's power in the ground
The wind will set me free at Wounded Knee
Quickly my old friend, look into my eyes
The past is slowly fading and
The future's in disguised
Before I leave this earth
Sing me one more song
And when you hear me laugh
Then you'll know that I am gone
Won't you take my body down to Wounded Knee
Take my body down to Wounded Knee
Where the spirit can be found
There's power in the ground
The wind will set me free at Wounded Knee
Wounded Knee wounded Knee
Wounded Knee wounded Knee
