Hawken Horse - Free lyrics

Artist: Hawken Horse

album: Hawken Horse


I left St Louis 3 springs ago
Soon as the sun thawed the snow
Trudged my way up a'mountain land
Built these walls with my two hands
I've traded pelts with the Sioux
Made my clothes sewed my shoes
The winter's hard the snow is deep
But I'm beholden to no man but me
Once you're free
You can't go back
Once you're free
You're gonna die like that
Theres beaver, deer and wapiti
Far as an eye can see
The water's rich with perch and trout
The soil is dark with fertile ground
Rumors echo through the leaves
That hard times rumble on back east
But I plant my corn and skin my game
And thank the Lord for one more day
Once you're free
You can't go back
Once you're free
You're gonna die like that
Once you're free
You can't go back
Once you're free
You're gonna die like that
Someday I'll die among these trees
The wolves and maggots will bury me
There'll be no stone to mark my grave
Just a Hawken rifle and an old King James
