Letras

[Verse 1]
The general rode for sixteen days
The horses were thirsty and tired
On the trail of a renegade chief
One he'd come to admire
The soldiers hid behind the hills
That surrounded the village
And he rode down to warn the chief
They'd come to conquer and pillage
[PreChorus]
Lay down your arms
Lay down your spear
The chief's eyes were sad
But showed no sign of fear
[Chorus]
It is a good day to die (It is a good day to die)
Oh, my children, dry your eyes
It is a good day to die
[Verse 2]
And he spoke of the days before the white man came
With his guns and whisky
He told of a time long ago
Before what you call history
The general couldn't believe his words
Nor the look on his face
But he knew these people would rather die
Than have to live in this disgrace
[PreChorus]
What law have I broken?
What wrong have I done
That makes you want to bury me
Upon this trail of blood?
[Chorus]
It is a good day to die (It is a good day to die)
Oh, my children, don't you cry
It is a good day to die
[Instrumental]
We cared for the land and the land cared for us
And that's the way it's always been
Never asked for more, never asked too much
And now you tell me this is the end
[PreChorus]
I laid down my weapon
I laid down my bow
Now you want to drive me out
With no place left to go
[Chorus]
It is a good day to die (It is a good day to die)
Oh, my children, don't you cry
It is a good day to die (It is a good day to die)
[Bridge]
And he turned to his people and said "Dry your eyes"
"We've been blessed and we are thankful"
"Raise your voices to the sky"
"It is a good day to die"
[Outro]
Oh, my children, don't you cry (Don't you cry)
Dry your eyes
Raise your voice up to the sky
It is a good day to die
