The Spirit Trail — текст песни (Dan Fogelberg)

The light is long the sun is low

Im riding fast across this dusty road

But I dont want to be, no I dont want to be



Above the ridge an eagle flies

In lazy circles in the western skies

I want to fly with him I want to walk the spirit trail



Ive seen them come Ive seen them go

Off to the oilfields and rodeos

To find a better way, they leave their native soil

But I can hear a different song

The drum within my heart is beating strong

I want to follow it, Ive got to walk the spirit trail

Let every creature I see be a brother and a friend to me

Let every step that I take leave the footprints of a warrior

Along the spirit trail

Heya-heya heya hiyo

Heya-heya heya hiyo

Heya-heya heya hiyo

Heya-heya heya hiyo

They took the land, they took control

They robbed my father of his very soul

To be like one of them, to be like one of them

But I was born a native son

And I will never be another one

To give it all away Ive got to walk the spirit trail

Let every creature I see be a brother and a friend to me

Let every step that I take leave the footprints of a warrior

Along the spirit trail

Heya-heya heya hiyo

Heya-heya heya hiyo

Heya-heya heya hiyo

Heya-heya heya hiyo

Let every creature I see be a brother and a friend to me

Let every step that I take leave the footprints of a warrior

Along the spirit trail

Heya-heya heya hiyo

Heya-heya heya hiyo

Heya-heya heya hiyo

Heya-heya heya hiyo
