Kansas - Cheyenne Anthem lyrics

Album: Leftoverture (1976)

From the mountains to the sun, Life has only just begun.
We wed this land & pledge our souls to meet its end,
Life has only just begun
Here my people roam the earth, in the kingdom of our birth,
Where the dust of all our horses hides the sun
We´re mighty on the earth, on the earth

You´ve come to move me, take me from my ancient home,
Land of my fathers I cannot leave you now
We´ll share it with you, no man owns this earth we are on
Now the wheels are rolling hear the howling winds of war
It is my destiny to fight & die
Is there no solution, can we find no other way, Lord let me stay
Under the endless sky & the earth below
Here I was born to live & I´ll never go, oh no

But we can´t endure like the earth & the mountains
Life´s not ours to keep, for a new sun is rising

Soon these days shall pass away, for our freedom we must pay
All our words & deeds´re carried on the wind,
In the ground our bodies lay, here we lay
