Trail Of Tears Lyrics - Blind Rage - Accept

Liars and murderers, pale faced intruders 

Came one day to our shores 

Years of deceit and injustice and greed 

Led to the crimes and the wars 

Hopelessly wronged, dragged from our homes 

Placed into stockades 

Loaded on wagons as cattle or sheep 

Silently filled with this rage 

And all through the nights, we sang and we cried 

holding on dearly 

What gives you the right to do this 

Who are the savages now! 

It's a trail of tears, keep home fires burning 

We're on a trail of tears, to were dreams go to die 

Suffering and dying, enduring the cold 

Oppression without regret 

Wantonly stealing our land and our gold 

The Cherokee will not forget 

And all through the nights, we sang and we cried 

holding on dearly 

Four thousand graves along the way 

Who are the savages now! 

It's a trail of tears, keep home fires burning 

We're on a trail of tears, to were dreams go to die 

It's a trail of tears, for our homes we are yearning 

We're on a trail of tears, to were dreams go to die
