Letra de Mr. Custer
<indian drums throughout>
<indian war whoops>
(that famous day in history the men of the 7th cavalry went riding on)
(and from the rear a voice was heard)
(a brave young man with a trembling word rang loud and clear)
what am i doin' here??
Please mr. custer, i don't wanna go
hey, mr. custer, please don't make me go
i had a dream last night about the comin' fight
somebody yelled "attack!"
and there i stood with a arrow in my back.
Please mr. custer, i don't wanna go (forward ho!!)--aaww
Spoken: look at them bushes out there
they're moving and there's a injun behind every one
hey, mr. custer-you mind if i be excused the rest of the afternoon?
hey charlie, duck yer head!! <sound of arrow whizzing by>
hmm, you're a little bit late on that one, charlie
hooh, i bet that smarts!
(they were sure of victory, the men of the 7th cavalry, as they rode on)
(but then from the rear a voice was heard)
(that same brave voice with the trembling word rang loud and clear)
what am i doin' here??
Please mr. custer, i don't wanna go
listen, mr. custer, please don't make me go
there's a redskin a-waitin' out there, just fixin to take my hair
a coward i've been called cuz i don't wanna wind up dead or bald
Please mr. custer, i don't wanna go (forward ho)--aaww
Spoken: i wonder what the injun word for friend is
let's see--friend-- kemo sabe, that's it
kemo sabe!, hey out there, kemo sabe! <sound of arrow whizzing by>
nope, that itn't it
look at them durned injuns
theyre runnin' around like a bunch of wild indians-heh, heh, heh
nah, this ain't no time for jokin'
<sound of arrow whizzing by>
<sound of arrow whizzing by>
