Robbie Robertson - It Is A Good Day To Die Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • 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
  • It is a good day to die
  • 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
  • It is a good day to die
  • It is a good day to die
  • Oh my children
  • Don't you cry
  • It is a good day to die
  • 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
  • Laid down my weapon
  • Laid down my bow
  • Now you want to
  • Drive me out
  • With no place left to go
  • It is a good day to die
  • It is a good day to die
  • Oh my children
  • Don't you cry
  • It is a good day to die
  • And he turned to his people
  • And said dry your eyes
  • We've been blessed
  • And we are thankful
  • Raise your voices to the sky
  • It is a good day to die
  • He said
  • Oh my children
  • Don't you cry
  • Dry your eyes
  • Rise your voice up to the sky
  • It is a good day to die
