Don`t Go Near the Indians

{Son, don`t go near the Indians
Please stay away
Son, don`t go near the Indians
Please do what I say}
Since I was just a little boy
I liked to roam the hills
And to hear wild stories about the Indians
Was my biggest thrill
I`d shout and yell and holler like heck
I wore moccasins on my feet
And I`d make believe I was under a teepee
Every time I went to sleep
My hair was jet black and I was twenty-one
Lots of pretty girls around
But the paleface maidens didn`t thrill me none
Around my Cochise County hometown
{Son, don`t go near the Indians
Please stay away
Son, don`t go near the Indians
Please do what I say}
One day I went to the reservation
And there by a shallow creek
Was a beautiful Indian a-fetchin` water
And I just had to speak
She smiled at me then quickly left
But the next day she returned
And it wasn`t very long till I told her how
The love in my heart burned
{Son, don`t go near the Indians
Please stay away
Son, don`t go near the Indians
Please do what I say}
I told my daddy I`d found a girl
Who meant the world to me
And tomorrow I`d ask the Indian chief
For the hand of NovaLee
Dad`s trembling lips spoke softly
As he told me of my life
Twas then he said I could never take
This maiden for my wife
SPOKEN:
Son, the white man and Indianss were fighting when you were born
And a brave called Yellow Sun scalped my little boy
So I stole you to get even for what he`d done
Though you`re a full-blooded Indian, son
I love you as much as my own little feller that`s dead
And, son, NovaLee is your sister
And that`s why I`ve always said
SINGING:
{Son, don`t go near the Indians
Please stay away
FADE:
Son, don`t go near the Indians
Please do what I say}
