Down to the Valley - Herman Frank

«Please tell me, Mule Skinner, why do you care

Which way I go on this bright summer’s day?

Ride east did you say?

Why should I go there?»

«Cause I have my decision

We’II ride west!»

I‘ve send them down

Down to the valley

I’ve send them down

Down to the ground

I’ve seen those shining eyes

They’re ready to fight

Heaven and earth will shake up tonight

I’ve seen how they died

Thousands of Indians won’t turn

And we will pay the price

«Don't you think that we should better stay?

And send some scouts to search a safer way?

Why do we have to go» asks the captain

Again — onward to glory ‘cause victory is certain

I sent them down, down into the valley

I sent them down, down to the ground

I’ve seen those shining eyes

They’re ready to fight

Heaven and earth will shake up tonight

I’ve seen how they died

Thousands of indians won’t turn

And we will pay the price

Pay the price, pay the price
