Pocahontas by Trampled by Turtles Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Aurora borealis, the icy sky at night
Paddles cut the water in a long and hurried flight
From the white man to the fields of green
To a homeland that we've never seen

[Verse 2]
They killed us in our teepees and they cut our women down
They might have left some babies crying on the ground
When the fire sticks and the wagons come
And the night falls on the setting sun

[Verse 3]
They massacred the buffalo kitty-corner from the bank
And taxis run across my feet and my eyes have turned to blanks
In my little box at the top of the stairs
With my Indian love and a pipe to share

[Verse 4]
I wish a was a trapper, I would give thousand pelts
To sleep with Pocahontas and find out how she felt
In the morning on the fields of green
In a homeland that we've never seen
[Verse 5]
And maybe Marlon Brando will be there by the fire
We sit and talk of Hollywood and the good things there for hire
Like the Astrodome and the first teepee
Marlon Brando, Pocahontas and me
And Marlon Brando, Pocahontas and me

[Outro]
