Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Aurora Borealis
The icy sky at night
Paddles cut the water
In a long and hurried flight
[Verse 2]
From the white man
To the fields of green
And the homeland
We've never seen
[Verse 3]
They killed us in our teepee
And they cut our women down
They might have left some babies
Crying on the ground
[Verse 4]
But the fire sticks
And the wagons come
And the night falls
On the setting sun
[Verse 5]
They massacred the buffalo
Kitty corner from the bank
And the taxis run across my feet
And my eyes have turned to blanks
[Verse 6]
And my little box
At the top of the stairs
With my Indian rug
And a pipe to share
[Verse 7]
I wish I was a trapper
I would give a thousand pelts
To sleep with Pocahontas
And find out how she felt
[Verse 8]
In the morning
On the fields of green
In the homeland
We never seen
[Verse 9]
And maybe Marlon Brando
Will be there by the fire
We'll sit and talk of Hollywood
And the good things there for hire
[Verse 10]
And the Astrodome
And the first teepee
Marlon Brando
Pocahontas and me
Marlon Brando
Pocahontas and me
Pocahontas
