2. Glory Calling
Onward my people they
Came to these shores
From so far away
Searching for freedom
They had known before
Many fall and pray
On this land they build
Their homes fighting wind and rain
Running far from pain they'd known
Now this land they claim
Fight
Into the night, we as one are free
Fight
War burning bright glory calling me
Fight
Into the dark never will i run
Fight
Cavalry charge this land and i are one
Many have fallen
Anf many have died all along the way
Fight for the families of
Those who have cried
This land is where i'll stay !
Mount your horses, one by one
Throw your fears aside
Here for huron blood we've come
For huron blood we ride
Fight
Into the night, we as one are free
Fight
War burning bright glory calling me
Fight
Into the dark never will i run
Fight
Cavalry charge this land and i are one
3. Rolling Thunder
Rolling thunder, feel my fears come alive
Stop and wonder, how many people must die ?
I've gone away, far away, to this misery
Help me, someone set me free
Run hide
coming after me
Run hide
On to albany
Hungry army, brothers Iroquois
Lonely party, fighting down in troy
Long ago, so far away
Driving westward shores
Help me, someone hear me say
Run hide
coming after me
Run hide
On to albany
Run hide
Coming after me
Run hide
Killers all i see
4. Rain
It's too late, my body's growin tired
To many of my brothers fall and die
I can't wait, soon i will be gone
Running from the land where i belong
Rain, falling on my shoulders
Rain, from the sky
Rain, i see tear drops falling down
Rain, where i die
I push on, my people on the run
How can i stand and fight against a gun
It's no use, this war is all i see
How can a man come on a land that's free ?
Rain, falling on my shoulders
Rain, from the sky
Rain, i see tear drops falling down
Rain, where i die
They're coming from another to turn me away
I'll stand up with my brother
I'll fight another day
Finished with your promisse
Finished with your lies
This land we won't surrender till every red man dies
Rain, falling on my shoulders
Rain, from the sky
Rain, i see tear drops falling down
Rain, where i die
You know it's gonny keep on running
Let it rain
It's gonna rain down, let it rain where i die
keep on coming tear drops coming down
5. Wounded Heart
Yes my father
I'll take your command
So my brother
I'll ride through you hand
All i feel is the painm in my heart, it won't let me be
Save my people from all that you start
Drive them to the sea
Wounded Heart
Sail away on the ocean
Take my hand together we'll fly
from this land
Wounded heart
Spread your wings on the ocean rest your head
For alderman, now you are dead
Run
Our villages burned and destroyed
Runs...resistance
Will soon be employed
Take my mark on the mountain of hope
Now I've com to lead
Blood and vengeance is all that i know
Brothers follow me
Now my people they bargain my soul
And turn their eyes away
They lost freedom that once made us whole
Now i hear them say
Wounded Heart
Sail away on the ocean
Take my hand together we'll fly
from this land
Wounded heart
Spread your wings on the ocean rest your head
For alderman, now you are dead
6. The Brethren of the Long House
Brave and strong
Born of the lords
The eagle sees so far as he scars
The roots have spread out
The tree of great peace
The seeds of war grow strong in the east
Brotherhood
Show your sign
The long house
Brotherhood
Sound your call
The long house
Many stand proud,
Five nations and one
Blinded eyes they cry to the sun
Fallen and weak
Many will die
Hold my land and pray to the sky
Brotherhood
Show your sign
The long house
Brotherhood
Sound your call
The long house
7. Out in the Fields
[Gary Moore cover]
It doesn't matter
If you're wrong or if you're right
It makes no difference
If you're black or if you're white
All men are equal
Till the victory is won
No colour or religion
Ever stopped the bullet from a gun
Out in the fields
The fighting has begun
Out on the streets
They're falling one by one
Out from the skies
A thousand more will die each day
Death is just a heartbeat away
It doesn't matter
If you're left or to the right
Don't try to hide behind the cause
They want to fight
There'll be no prisoners taken
When the day is done
No flag, no uniform
Ever stopped the bullet from a gun
Out in the fields
The fighting has begun
Out on the streets
They're falling one by one
Out from the skies
A thousand more will die each day
Death is just a heartbeat away
There's no communication
No one to take the blame
The cries of every nation
They're falling on deaf ears again
Out in the fields
Out in the fields
They're falling one by one
Out in the fields
No flag has ever stopped
The bullet from a gun
Death is just a heartbeat away
Out in the fields
A heartbeat away
Out in the fields
Death is just a heartbeat away
Out in the fields
A heartbeat away
Out in the fields
In the fields
The fighting has begun
Out on the streets
They're falling one by one
Out from the skies
A thousand more will die each day
OUT!
8. Santa Maria
There are ships upon the ocean
Through the morning mist and cold
Ride the wind to the new world
Lion hearts they sail so bold
In a vision i have seen this
Such a dream i can't ignore
What become of our children
When they reach the secred shore ?
Santa Maria
The world awaits your destiny
Santa Maria
Say a prayer for me
A man of faith, he is driven
Passion turns deep inside
Hope and courage dwell within him
As he watched the midnight sky
There are some who will forsaken him
There are those who wonder why
Though many people will embrace him
We remember and we cry
Santa Maria
The world awaits your destiny
Santa Maria
Say a prayer for me
9. Blood of the English
Move out to the land of the burning sun
Where many nations stand as one
Push on through the cold and the icy seas
The smell of earth it follows me
In the darkness how i wonder what will i find on distant shores ?
I've heard stories about what lies upon the land
English blood it stains the sand
Father hear my cry
Ganna get my life
Gonna get my soul
Now i'll fall and die
Until my blood runs cold
Fight hard
I fall many with my blade m
any soldiers strong and brave
Fall down
Smash my body to the ground
No more comrades can i save
Through a field now i stumble
Try to hide without a sound
I see sohadows of the red man all around
Death awaits me if i'm found
Father hear my cry
Ganna get my life
Gonna get my soul
Now i'll fall and die
Until my blood runs cold
Someone hear me screaming
I pray i'm only dreaming
Oh god help me me when i'm found
Father hear my cry
Ganna get my life
Gonna get my soul
Now i'll fall and die
Until my blood runs cold
10. Ghost Dance
Watching through the dead of the night
Think i have one in my sight
I'm torn in many ways
Being far from where i'm known
I'm alone
Crossing over one by one
I am just a ghost to some
Feel my spirit start to soar
One more hour and i'll be sure
Someone see me
Someone hear me
Someone bring me , back from where i go
Someone help me
Someone touch me
Someone tell me has my death begun ?
Surely soon i will discover
If i hear my fallen brother
Things have got to change
Life it cannot end this way
So i pray
Turn me loose on rock or slone
From this battlefield i'm thrown
Darkened visions start to grow
One more hour then i'll know
Someone see me
Someone hear me
Someone bring me , back from where i go
Someone help me
Someone touch me
Someone tell me has my death begun ?
11. Shenandoah
Oh Shenandoah, I long to hear you
Away, you lonely river
Oh Shenandoah, I long to hear you
Away, I'm bound to go
Across the wide Missouri
12. Holy Land
For many years my people walked this land on ehich i stand
I pray no more whitre men come to soil this holy land
Pontiac, gather xour men and meet me down below
Until they learn, they must pay with the seeds in life they sow
Holy Land
I'll fight you with this arrow in my hand
Holy Land
Running from the valley to the sand
Now get away, i'll slaughter all i find on this frontier
No more to say, no answer or excuses will i hear
I'm ottawa, i've com to make you pay for what you've done
I will not fall, not before your brother or your son
Holy Land
I'll fight you with this arrow in my hand
Holy Land
Running from the valley to the sand
On my way, i must erase your poison from this land
I'm here to stay, eradicate your seed with my bare hands
Holy Land
I'll fight you with this arrow in my hand
Holy Land
Running from the valley to the sand
13. Mohicans Reprise
