custer's last command - frank fara lyrics
(intro)
the horses trot in unison
we’re marching from fort lincoln
we’re the seventh cavalry
(verse)
we got our orders yesterday
and now we’re on the move
our general says we’re heading west
to contain the mighty sue
my general’s in high spirits
with his brothers by his side
tom and boston custer
their horses march in stride
lieutenant calhoun, brother*in*law
with nephew, audie reed
their courage won’t be wanting
in any time of need
the summer heat keeps rising
like the dust along our trail
the horses sweat and the men complain
but all to no avail
(chorus)
my general leads the column
known by his bright red tie
it blows against his golden hair
in the blue montana sky
the forth of july is coming
convention time is near
my general needs a victory cry
for all the world to hear
he might just run for office
the highest in the land
(highest in the land)
the seventh could be marching
with the presidential band
(verse)
we’re moving up the rose bud
and the indian trail is spied
burrowed earth and trampled ground at least a mile wide
my general is not worried by a village of this size
he’s seen those hofts(?) still scatter fast when taken by disguise
(chorus)
the orders have been given
we’ll split in three commands
reno takes the valley
while benteen scouts the land
my general he rides forward
to meet the mighty sue
that’s the last time i saw custer
as he rode out of our view
(verse)
custer’s bugler reached us
with a message in his hand
said “come on quick, big village”
he was needing every man
but his troopers could not reach him
they were cut off from command
and my general died with all his men
as he made his final stand
(outro)
i was proud to ride with custer
as i did most all my days
with our guide hopes high in the summer sky
i remember him today
i was proud to ride with custer
as i did most all my days
with our guide hopes high in the summer sky
we’ll make ten miles today
