Lyrics

I went to Little Big Horn, not a single word was said Except one old lonely ghost said "the General's still dead" The General's still dead." I asked him if any Indians, ever came to call He said the last one that he'd seen, rode off with big Chief Gall Rode off with big Chief Gall Ole Sitting Bull once told me, on this very ground He saw blue coat pony soldiers, falling upside down Falling upside down There was not a single leaf on a cottonwood tree They were gone as the men of the 7th Calvary 7th Calvary I stood on Calhoun's Hill, rain fell like shattered glass I felt 12,000 solders blood flowing through the grass Flowing through the grass I saw 100 years of Indians, dancing in the sun I felt the Indian power. The battle is still won The battle is still won When they shot him through the heart, I wonder if it hurt They left Mrs. Custer's husband to die there in the dirt Die there in the dirt Then a soldier came, and took me to the train He said "Custer's still in Hell, boy, forget you ever came Forget you ever came." I went to Little Big Horn, not a single word was said Except one old lonely ghost said "The general's still dead The general's still dead."
