oh susanna - pueblo lyrics

Loading...

in the town of taos, new mexico
three hundred and twenty five years ago
we dealt the lamb on the altar that deadly blow
and the hot spanish blood through the streets did flow
three knots in a rope was our sign to show
the conquistador back to el paso
i put the paint on my skin and an arrow in my bow
i’m gonna take back the faith they stole

and they’ll try, they’ll never know
just what it takes to take my soul
just what it takes to bury me in that ground
‘cause you know my grave they’ve been diggin’
but i won’t, i won’t be found
no, no

well we crept through the cornfields they made us sew
and we showered our arrows to the land below
we gathered bullets to shoot and stones to throw
yeah, the flag that flew high will be sinking low
well the church is on fire, let the trumpets blow
they found we were bound for the devil’s door

and they’ll try, they’ll never know
just what it takes to take my soul
just what it takes to break my spirit down
‘cause you know my chariot is a+swingin’
but i won’t, i won’t be found
no, no
well a bell in a cave can never toll
a wagonless wheel will never roll
there are secrets here still that were never told
they sleep with the ones who now lie cold

and they’ll try, they’ll never know
just what it takes to take my soul
just what it takes to break my spirit down
‘cause you know my song they’ll be singin’
‘cause i am, i am still around
