Letra de Geronimo

[Verse 1]
The moon shone down with an eerie light
And cast it's beam on the lonely night
Shadows danced, a fluttering breeze
Stirred dead branches in the trees
The land laid waste, a chill in the air
Was proof that disaster had struck there
The moaning wind and the glistening snow
Seemed to whisper, "Geronimo!"
[Chorus]
(Geronimo, Geronimo...)
[Verse 2]
A train of settlers left one day
From somewhere back east, they say
A song in their heart and hopes unfurled
To build a life in the western world
Husband, wives, kids by the score
Smiling faces, dreams galore
Future bright, but soon they’d know
The ominous name, Geronimo
[Verse 3]
Storm clouds gathered a few weeks out
Then came a spell of want and drought
Sick with fear they lost their way
On their knees they began to pray
And the prays were answered, a guiding hand
Showed the way to the promised land
The wind moaned to let them know
The man was known as, Geronimo
[Chorus]
(Geronimo, Geronimo...)
[Verse 4]
A curl of smoke on the distant hill
A sign of peril ignored until
They suddenly saw with gasping breathe
Their doom was sealed by the hand of death
For there on a stallion sat their fate
Filled with a devilry, savage hate
Decked in war paint, all in glow
The warrior chief, Geronimo
[Verse 5]
The settler's wagons were wrecked and burnt
Men were killed wherever they turned
Nary a women or child were spared
Those alive stood shocked and scared
The nation mourned this carnage act
Could hard believe the terrible fact
The tomahawks swinging, arrows and bow
Was a work of a man called, Geronimo
[Chorus]
(Geronimo, Geronimo...)
[Verse 6]
He appeared one day at the stockade door
Finally brought before the law to stand his trial
The verdict he got
Come to sunrise, he'd be shot
[Verse 7]
The same moon shines on the lonely night
And now it shines with a peaceful light
But should you listen to the falling snow
You can hear it murmur, "Geronimo!"
[Chorus]
(Geronimo, Geronimo...)
