Neil Young - Pocahontas (Official Music Video)
The Northern Lights
The frozen night sky
The paddles cut through the water
In a long and fast stroke
From the white man
to the green plains
In the homeland
that we have never seen
They killed us in our tepee
And they slaughtered our women
They might have spared a few children
left on the ground crying
But the rifles
and the wagons come
And night falls
on the setting sun
They killed the buffalo
Next to the riverbank
The taxis drive over my feet
And my eyes have dimmed
In my little room
at the top of the stairs
With my Indian blanket
and a pipe to share
I wish I were a hunter
I’d give a thousand hides
To spend a night with Pocahontas
And discover how she felt
In the morning
in the green plains
In the homeland
that we have never seen
And maybe Marlon Brando
Will be there by the fire
We’ll sit and talk about Hollywood
And what they rent you there
And the Astrodome
and the first tepee
Marlon Brando, me and Pocahontas
Marlon Brando, me and Pocahontas.
