Dan Fogelberg - The Spirit Trail Lyrics
The light is long the sun is lowIm riding fast across this dusty roadBut I dont want to be, no I dont want to beAbove the ridge an eagle fliesIn lazy circles in the western skiesI want to fly with him I want to walk the spirit trailIve seen them come Ive seen them goOff to the oilfields and rodeosTo find a better way, they leave their native soilBut I can hear a different songThe drum within my heart is beating strongI want to follow it, Ive got to walk the spirit trailLet every creature I see be a brother and a friend to meLet every step that I take leave the footprints of a warriorAlong the spirit trailHeya-heya heya hiyoHeya-heya heya hiyoHeya-heya heya hiyoHeya-heya heya hiyoThey took the land, they took controlThey robbed my father of his very soulTo be like one of them, to be like one of themBut I was born a native sonAnd I will never be another oneTo give it all away Ive got to walk the spirit trailLet every creature I see be a brother and a friend to meLet every step that I take leave the footprints of a warriorAlong the spirit trailHeya-heya heya hiyoHeya-heya heya hiyoHeya-heya heya hiyoHeya-heya heya hiyoLet every creature I see be a brother and a friend to meLet every step that I take leave the footprints of a warriorAlong the spirit trailHeya-heya heya hiyoHeya-heya heya hiyoHeya-heya heya hiyoHeya-heya heya hiyo
