Buffalo Jump Songtext
von Dougie MacLean

I′m the child of the great cree nation see me i'm my father′s son
We live by the great bull see me i'm the wild one
This morning we are ready to show the buffalo our knives
And by the red of sunset we'll have relieved them of their lives


Buffalo jump feel the thunder
Buffalo jump across the plains
Buffalo jump kill the hunger
Crashing over the cliffs of pain

The beast has well been gathered we could have had a thousand more
We′ll run them to the edge and they′ll tumble out through death's dark door
And soon the blood will flow like water through these sun bleached ancient bones
It will revive this dusty land on which our seeds of life are thrown

See me i am the bravest i′m the strongest of us all
I'll stand beside the river′s edge and watch the great black waterfall
I'm a child of the great cree nation see me i′m my father's son
We live by the great bull see me i'm the wild one
