Lyrics
Lone Eagle loved White Feather
woman of the Cherokee,and he'd take his bride when the
new moon rises over Tennessee.
Early morning,Smokey Mountains,eighteen hundred and five
they say the time is now to take the white man down
leave no one alive
Lone Eagle,White Feather
coyete don't make a sound,you know why the eagle don't fly
over sacred ground
Back in town the settlers come down
to hear what the soldiers would say.Talk was made of a wild
renegade and he's heading this way.
medicine man oh medicine man tell me when the white man comes,
say an indian prayer and send it out there where the wild river runs
Lone Eagle,White Feather
coyete don't make a sound,you know why the eagle don't fly
over sacred ground
The river turned red from the blood of the dead,
Cherokee taken by surprise.Men load those guns if the indians run
shoot em right between the eyes.
The village burned,no one returned
White Feather never was found,but white man say someone carried
her away,over sacred ground.
Lone Eagle,White Feather
coyete don't make a sound,you know why the eagle don't fly
over sacred ground,over sacred ground
