The Vanishing Race lyrics

Ii Ii ou Ii Ii Ii ou Ii Ii ou

Oh wagon trains rollin' along

They fade from my visions

And in time will be gone

I see an eagle in space

My people will follow

Oh oh a vanishing race

Ii Ii ou Ii Ii Ii ou Ii Ii ou

An Indian brave rolled along one day

On a lonely mountain trail

And he gazed below with a heart of woe

Where the prairie schooners sail

A vision formed like a mortal storm

In the dust of the wagon train

A vanishing race appeared in space

And he sang his sad refrain

Ii Ii ou Ii Ii Ii ou Ii Ii ou

Oh wagon trains rollin' along...

Oh now great spirits on high

Please spare them the sorrow

You show to my eye oh oh

Now my blankets are roll

And I ride to the valley

Of the brave Navajo oh oh

Ii Ii ou Ii Ii Ii ou Ii Ii ou

And I ride to the valley

Of the brave Navajo oh oh

Oh oh a vanishing Navajo

Oh the vanishing Navajo

Ii Ii ou Ii Ii Ii ou Ii Ii ou
