Lyrics
Navajo Moon
©,Jarrell/McCulloch,2003
Guided by spirits from an ancestral tree
At peace with the land that they use
Proud of their blood and their long history
Living a life they didn?t choose
Dragged from their homes when the arrow was broken
Their villages await their return
Tired of the lies the White Man has spoken
The fires in their memory still burn
Navajo moon
In a western sky
Burial ground
Where the Old Ones lie
Songs on the wind
From a time gone by
Navajo moon
Won?t let them die
Too poor to dream and too worn to worry
The children play out in the dust
With time on their hands they?re in no hurry
Hope is all covered in rust
The lies that were written of the Indian Nation
Are passed down from father to son
The truth is revealed in remote reservations
And hunting grounds scorched by the sun
Navajo moon
In a western sky
Burial ground
Where the Old Ones lie
Songs on the wind
From a time gone by
Navajo moon
Won?t let them die
Navajo moon
Won?t let them die
