[The Outlaws Southern Rock Band - Trail Of Tears lyrics]
Trail Of Tears (The Outlaws)
Amadahy was her name, she was Cherokee
With the land she loved they
Lived in perfect harmony
Her people thrived all
Through the Appalachians
'til the white eye learned of
All the gold buried within trail Of Tears
Death soldiers marched on them in 1838
She watched them burn their homes
With a fire of hate
Betrayed by treaties and the
Army's grand old man
Seven thousand troops led them to
Hell and back again
(Trail of Tears) I'm on the trail
Of tears (Trail of Tears)
Lord I'm going down
(Trail of Tears) , I'm on the trail of tears
(Trail of Tears) turn the
Whole world upside down
Legend says where every mother's tear fell
Grows a Cherokee Rose
I hope Old Hickory is burning down in hell
With all the demons that drove
Him down that road down the trail of tears
The last of them arrived in the spring of '39
Shattered her peoples hope
One heartbeat at a time
Crockett and Worcester
They fought for them in vain
They will always be remembered
In our hearts they will remain
(Trail of Tears) I'm on the trail
Of tears (Trail of Tears)
Lord I'm going down
(Trail of Tears) , down the trail of tears
(Trail of Tears) turn the
Whole world upside down trail of Tears
Amadahy was her name, she was Cherokee
With the land she loved they
Lived in perfect harmony
Her people thrived all
Through the Appalachians
'til the white eye learned of
All the gold buried within trail Of Tears
Death soldiers marched on them in 1838
She watched them burn their homes
With a fire of hate
Betrayed by treaties and the
Army's grand old man
Seven thousand troops led them to
Hell and back again
(Trail of Tears) I'm on the trail
Of tears (Trail of Tears)
Lord I'm going down
(Trail of Tears) , I'm on the trail of tears
(Trail of Tears) turn the
Whole world upside down
Legend says where every mother's tear fell
Grows a Cherokee Rose
I hope Old Hickory is burning down in hell
With all the demons that drove
Him down that road down the trail of tears
The last of them arrived in the spring of '39
Shattered her peoples hope
One heartbeat at a time
Crockett and Worcester
They fought for them in vain
They will always be remembered
In our hearts they will remain
(Trail of Tears) I'm on the trail
Of tears (Trail of Tears)
Lord I'm going down
(Trail of Tears) , down the trail of tears
(Trail of Tears) turn the
Whole world upside down trail of Tears
