neil young - broken arrow (live at canterbury house 1968) lyrics

[verse 1]
the lights turned on and the curtain fell down
and when it was over, it felt like a dream
they stood at the stage door and begged for a scream
the agents had paid for the black limousine
that waited outside in the rain
did you see them? did you see them?

[chorus]
did you see them in the river?
they were there to wave to you
could you tell that the empty+quivered
brown+skinned indian on the banks
that were crowded and narrow
held a broken arrow?

[verse 2]
eighteen years of american dream
he saw that his brother had sworn on the wall
he hung up his eyelids and ran down the hall
his mother had told him a trip was a fall
and don’t mention babies at all
did you see him? did you see him?

[chorus]
did you see him in the river?
he was there to wave to you
could you tell that the empty+quivered
brown+skinned indian on the banks
that were crowded and narrow
held a broken arrow?
[verse 3]
the streets were lined for the wedding parade
the queen wore the white gloves, the county of song
the black+covered caisson her horses had drawn
protected her king from the sun rays of dawn
they married for peace and were gone
did you see them? did you see them?

[chorus]
did you see them in the river?
they were there to wave to you
could you tell that the empty+quivered
brown+skinned indian on the banks
that were crowded and narrow
held a broken arrow?
