You can still walk along the warpath of the Cheyenne, Sioux, and Crow
Cnd see the scars across the prairie, where wagon tracks still show
These hills and plains and mountains are my family's history
It's a whole lot more than just this dirt that's been passed down to me
I guess you can say my blood runs right through it
Cuz some of us have given their last breath to hold on to it
So, bury me underneath the cottonwood tree
Where the silver sagebrush grows, and the Powder River rolls
Cnd lay me down, in that hallowed ground
Let the sand of the land of the Buffalo cover my bones, before it's all gone
There's still grass and sheep and cattle as far as I can see
But just over that horizon are rows of houses, lights and streets
I can hear the storm a comin', I can feel the winds of change
But before I watch em pave these gravel roads, Lord, I pray
That they bury me underneath the cottonwood tree
Where the silver sagebrush grows, and the Powder River rolls
Cnd lay me down, in that hallowed ground
Let the sand of the land of the Buffalo cover my bones, before it's all gone
Before it's all gone
Lay me down, in that hallowed ground
Let the sand of the land of the Buffalo cover my bones, before it's all gone
Before it's all gone
