Shoshone Rose 歌词

She speaks English well enough to pass for white Works twice as hard as any man and her skin is light Hangs back in the shadows around the fire So no one can tell that she's Shoshone in disguise It was easy gettin' into camp Just waited 'til the guard got drunk and took that chance Lay his body up the stream a quarter-mile Now the water's running foul and they don't know why They don't know why They don't know why Keep your hair up, hat down low Don't talk to people you don't know Tell that horse to go, go, go And ride, Shoshone Rose She's the last and bravest of the scouts And the only woman standing with her head unbowed 'Cause she made a promise, took a vow That she'd never rest until she's run the white men out Now the Moon in new, the stars are bright And it's dark enough to go unnoticed here tonight Death dressed in a deerskin shroud Is coming for the General and it's too late now It's too late now It's too late now Keep your hair up, hat down low Don't talk to people you don't know And tell that horse to go, go, go And ride, Shoshone Rose She slips inside his canvas tent Lets her black hair fall all the way down to her hips Locks her eyes and licks her lips Gives the General her softest kiss Lust is smoke, it clouds the sight By the flickering flame of candlelight Such sweet release he closed his eyes And barely felt the Bowie knife The Bowie knife The Bowie knife Keep your hair up, hat down low Don't talk to people you don't know Tell that horse to go, go, go And ride, Shoshone Rose
