Geronimo - Shannon McNally

And I do it again and again

I listen for visions and missions in the wind

I won the vote but shunned the soft parade

And now I’m picking garbage, a true sage’s trade

I won every battle and lost the war

You dared me to reach for it, you dared me to know

So I drove that car just as slow as it would go

Listening for the sound of my last hope hit the ground, baby

Won every battle but lost the war

You managed to take more than I had

With your greedy treaties and your rubber badge

You may have won every battle but you lost the war

Well, I only did what I knew

Simple math, nothing more nothing less

If you hadn’t of told me I never would have guessed

How hungry was your hate, how sealed was my fate

And I won every battle but lost the war

I managed to take more than I had

With your greedy treaties and your rubber badge

You may have won every battle but you lost the war

You may have won every battle but lost the war
