《Big Foot》歌词

[00:00:00] Big Foot -Johnny Cash

[00:00:08] But the land was already claimed by a people

[00:00:11] When the cowboy came and when the soldiers came

[00:00:16] The story of the American Indian is in a lot of ways

[00:00:20] A story of tragedy like that day at Wounded Knee South Dakota

[00:00:33] Big Foot was an Indian chief

[00:00:35] Of the Minneconjou band

[00:00:39] A band of Minneconjou Sioux

[00:00:41] From South Dakota land

[00:00:43] Big Foot said to Custer

[00:00:46] "Stay away from Crazy Horse"

[00:00:48] But Custer crossed into Sioux land

[00:00:51] And he never came back across

[00:00:54] Then Big Foot led his people

[00:00:56] To a place called Wounded Knee

[00:00:59] And they found themselves surrounded

[00:01:01] By the 7th Cavalry

[00:01:06] Big chief Big Foot

[00:01:08] Rise up from your bed

[00:01:11] Minneconjou babies cry

[00:01:13] For their mothers lying dead

[00:01:16] Big Foot was down with a fever

[00:01:20] When he reached Wounded Knee

[00:01:23] And his people all were prisoners

[00:01:25] Of the 7th Cavalry

[00:01:28] Two hundred women and children

[00:01:30] And another hundred men

[00:01:33] Raised up a white flag of peace

[00:01:36] But peace did not begin

[00:01:39] An accidental gunshot

[00:01:41] And Big Foot was first to die

[00:01:44] And over the noise of the rifles

[00:01:46] You could hear the babies cry

[00:01:49] Big chief Big Foot

[00:01:53] It's good that you can't see

[00:01:56] Revenge is being wrought

[00:01:58] By Custer's 7th Cavalry

[00:02:03] Then smoke hung over the canyon

[00:02:05] On that cold December day

[00:02:08] All was death and dying

[00:02:10] Around where Big Foot lay

[00:02:14] Farther on up the canyon

[00:02:15] Some had tried to run and hide

[00:02:19] But death showed no favorites

[00:02:21] Women men and children died

[00:02:24] One side called it a massacre

[00:02:26] The other a victory

[00:02:29] But the white flag is still waving

[00:02:31] Today at Wounded Knee

[00:02:34] Big chief Big Foot

[00:02:38] Your Minneconjou band

[00:02:41] Is more than remembered here

[00:02:44] In South Dakota land

[00:02:46] Big chief Big Foot

[00:02:48] Your Minneconjou band

[00:02:51] Is more than remembered here

[00:02:54] In South Dakota land
