Pioneer by The Band Perry Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh pioneer
I sing your song
It's the hymn of those who've gone before and those who carry on
Pioneer, your work is hard
But the future of us all rests on the shoulders of your heart

[Chorus]
Where are we going?
Oh, I don't know
But still, I've gotta go
What will become of us?
Oh, I don't care
All I know is I'll go anywhere
Pioneer

[Verse 2]
Oh pioneer
So young and brave
Be careful of the careful souls who doubt you along the way
Pioneer
You orphaned child
Your mother is adventure and your father is the wild
[Chorus]
Where are we going?
Oh, I don't know
But still, I've gotta go
What will become of us?
Oh, I don't care
All I know is I'll go anywhere
Pioneer

[Bridge]
Let your heart not be troubled
I won't run when bullets chase me
I won't rest where arms embrace me
I will love when people hate me
I won't hush, no, you can't make me
Send the dark, but it won't break me
You can try, but you can't change me
Take my life, they will replace me
I won't hush, no, you can't make me
I won't hush, no, we will sing

[Chorus]
Where are we going?
Oh, I don't know
But still, I've gotta go
What will become of us?
Oh, I don't care
All I know is I'll go anywhere
Pioneer
[Outro]
Let your heart not be troubled
Ooh-ooh
Let your heart not be troubled
Yeah, yeah
