Spirit Horse Of The Cherokee Lyrics - The Triumph Of Steel - Manowar

The trail of tears began for all the Cherokee 

The white men came to trade and borrow 

But then they would not leave 

Some of us were taken by boat and died at sea 

Those of us who lived were sold to slavery 

We welcomed them as brothers 

Knowing nothing of their greed 

Born hunters not the hunted 

As the white man hunts for me 

We are descendants of the animals 

We live among the free 

Our trail of tears 

Would end one day at Wounded Knee

Great spirit, thunder birds fly 

We are wild and free 

To fight and die by the open sky 

Spirit Horse ride for me 

When we do the Ghost Dance 

The buffalo will return 

Paint ourselves for war 

Now blood and fire burn 

Great Spirit make us strong 

Take us to the sky 

The Cherokee are brave 

We are not afraid to die 

Great Spirit, thunder birds fly 

We are wild and free 

To fight and die by the open sky 

Spirit Horse ride for me

Red Cloud, Black Hawk, Sitting Bull 

Crazy Horse, Geronimo 

Strong and brave warriors to the grave 

There has been much killing 

There will be much more 

The medicine man is dancing 

He's calling us to war 

Hatchets sing with pride 

Let the white man die
