[4X]

Was the night - I was young

 When my father called for his first born son

 Took me place at his side

 While this great chief raged in the fire light

 We'd reclaim days of old

 If the tribe would do what his dream foretold

Praying to the vision of the promised land

Swaying to the rhythm of the drums

 We were pledging our allegiance to Wevoka's plan

 When the shots rang out, there soldiers all around

 And their cannons put an end to our holy singin' of

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

 The first cowboys were doing the Ghostdance singin'

 (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

 The first cowboys were doing the Ghostdance

 Hypnotized by my tale

 Generations learn of the Great Betrayal long ago

 At Wounded Knee

 Where our grandfathers bled for what they believed

 Wouldn't buy what they sold – reservation

 Life for our Black Hills gold

For praying to the vision of the promised land

Swaying to the rhythm of the drums

 We were pledging our allegiance to Wevoka's plan

 And the Great Spirit cried when our warriors fell to the hail of

The blue coat's guns (so we're singin')

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

 The first cowboys were doing the Ghostdance singin'

 (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

 For your soul, for your name

 Many brave men's blood's running through your veins

 Leave your mark - walk with pride

 Live in honor to those who gave their lives

 Ancient hearts are rest in peace

 Till we sing and dance, and set them free

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

 The first cowboys were doing the Ghostdance singin'

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
