Crazy Horse

I dreamed I was an indian
On the Wyoming plain
Wrapped up in a buffalo robe
Low down in the dirt
Dabbing on my war paint

I was thinking ‘bout my homeland
Thinking ‘bout my woman and child
I was waiting for the bluecoats
Them murdering liars
I was thinking it’s a good day to die

Crazy Horse people, Red Cloud sky
Crazy Horse people, Red Cloud sky

Dreamed I was a soldier
In the US cavalry
Sat tall on a chestnut steed
My pride and my joy
Hunting for the savage enemy

I was thinking ‘bout my hometown
Thinking ‘bout a girl I used to know
I’ve got one more silver dollar
Til I next get paid
I was thinking it’s a long way home

Crazy Horse people, Red Cloud sky
Crazy Horse people, Red Cloud sky

Dreamed I was an eagle
In the Wyoming sky
Soaring high above
On my eagle wings
Watching with my eagle eye

Just like a symbol of freedom
An omen for the brave
I saw a silver eagle
On a blood soaked coin
An eagle feather in a dead man’s hair

Crazy Horse people, Crazy Horse people
Crazy Horse people, Red Cloud sky
