From Good Homes Black Elk Speaks Lyrics

white heat.. was on
our tracks
                                                    the four-legged on
the run
                                                    white heat.. on our
backs
                                                       burning like a
sun
                                                      we walked.. walked
                                                  til there was no-where
left to go
                                                   we walked.. many fell
down
                                                       bloody in the
snow
                                                  white heat.. was on
our tracks
                                                     and growing to a
flood
                                                    white heat.. on our
backs
                                                     and growing to a
flood
                                                       we fought..
fought
                                                  til there was no-where
left to go
                                                   we fell... a pool of
red neath
                                                 passing wheels in mud
and snow
                                                  black elk... "I did
not know then
                                                    how much was that
end.."
                                                    black elk... "I see
it now...
                                                    from the high-hill
old age.."
                                                   black elk... "I see
the people
                                                    scattered along the
gulch
                                                    black elk... "I see
it plain..
                                                 "as when I saw with
young eyes...
                                                  and I see...something
else died
                                                   in the bloody
snow...I see...
                                                  A peoples' dream died
there...
                                                    it was a beautiful
dream..
                                                    it was a beautiful
dream..."
                                                   wo-o, wo-o-o-o,
