The general rode for sixteen days
The horses were thirsty and tired
On the trail of a renegade chief
One he`d come to admire
The soldiers hid behind the hills
That surrounded the village
And he rode down to warn the chief
They`d come to conquer and pillage
Lay down your arms
Lay down your spear
The chief`s eyes were sad
But showed no sign of fear
(chorus)
It is a good day to die
Oh my children dry your eyes
It is a good day to die
He spoke of the days before the white man came
With his guns and whisky
He told of a time a long time ago
Before what you call history
The general couldn`t believe his words
Nor the look on his face
But he knew these people would rather die
Then have to live in this disgrace
What law have i broken
What wrong have i done
That makes you want to bury me
Upon this trail of blood
(chorus)
We cared for the land and the land cared for us
And that`s the way it`s always been
Never asked for more never asked too much
And now you tell me this is the end
I laid down my weapon
Laid down my bow
Now you want to drive me out
With no place left to go
