Song Description

The first track of concept album Eagle

Lyrics

Let him die on his feet
Don't let him die a hero
Or he can take to the street
Get a job
Serving coloured cocktails in a bar (light my cigar)
Just keep your half breeds out of sight
And we don't care where you are

There's a road to the south
But no welcome waiting
You had the pipe in your mouth
Talking peace
The deal you made soon vanished into smoke
You lost your culture to the wind
All for a chilli dog and coke

When the sun warms the lake
And the river's flowing
Then the spirits awake
And we live
Circling with the eagle in the sky
Look for the smoke on the horizon
We are the earth and we shall never die
