Tomahawk Songtext
von Marty Stuart and His Fabulous Superlatives
Tomahawk Songtext
The archer shot an arrow, it went sailing through the woods
Arrow hit the dirt, he said well he ain′t no robinhood
Collar up, north winds cold
Boom faded in the pale, saw angels all around
Heard hood hounds on my trail
Hood hounds on my trail
Keep it for the rocket from cape can have a town
But it melted into nothing
Just when it's off the ground
And when it all was ascended
Until the ether of the sky
And times like this was a man who′d used their pain as hidden crimes
Pain as hidden crime
When it's all over, and it's in done
There′s absolutely nothing new underneath the sun
We′d live, love, laugh, always on the run
There's absolutely nothing new underneath the sun
Absolutely nothing new underneath the sun
Take my friend the hollywood actress
A real life movie queen
She cries as she watches herself there on the screen
She said I used to be so young
I used to be so pretty
Now look at me, don′t look at me, oh life can be so greedy
Meanwhile back in lonely ville, a red man did appear
He came from out of nowhere
His name is Ronny Deer
His eyes were dark and stormy
I've never heard him talk
His just carries a holy bible and a silver tomahawk
Silver tomahawk
It all goes back to the indians and the common of the trees
The killing of buffalos and the the scarlet killer reign
I′m down to nothing in my pocket
But I know exactly what I've lost
But it must be a holy bible and a silver tomahawk
Silver tomahawk
And when it′s all over and it's said and done
There's absolutely nothing new underneath the sun
We live, love, laughed, I always on the run
There′s absolutely nothing new underneath the sun
Absolutely nothing new underneath the sun
We′re all here for a minute
Dinner time is up, make way for the new recruits coming in a red pick up truck
It's story all this time, it spills down through the ages
′Til the trumpet blows the world right off the bowl of pages
Off the bowl of pages
Now when it's all over and it′s said and done
There's absolutely nothing new underneath the sun
We live, love, laughed, I always on the run
There′s absolutely nothing new underneath the sun
Absolutely nothing new underneath the sun
Arrow hit the dirt, he said well he ain′t no robinhood
Collar up, north winds cold
Boom faded in the pale, saw angels all around
Heard hood hounds on my trail
Hood hounds on my trail
Keep it for the rocket from cape can have a town
But it melted into nothing
Just when it's off the ground
And when it all was ascended
Until the ether of the sky
And times like this was a man who′d used their pain as hidden crimes
Pain as hidden crime
When it's all over, and it's in done
There′s absolutely nothing new underneath the sun
We′d live, love, laugh, always on the run
There's absolutely nothing new underneath the sun
Absolutely nothing new underneath the sun
Take my friend the hollywood actress
A real life movie queen
She cries as she watches herself there on the screen
She said I used to be so young
I used to be so pretty
Now look at me, don′t look at me, oh life can be so greedy

There′s absolutely nothing new underneath the sun
Absolutely nothing new underneath the sun
