Soldier Blue Songtext

von Blackfoot

Late at night when I'm alone,
I think about the life I've known,
And all the miles that I've left behind me

With every day that comes to pass,
I gotta try and make it last,
All my dreams are coming back to haunt me.

I live on borrowed time,
I know the reasons why,
That I ride on, ride on, I'm the Soldier Blue,
Ride on, ride on, I'm the Soldier Blue,
Well, that's all I can do.

I woke up with the sun today,
Hopin' the light would show me the way,
Down the road that's never ending.
Everything I own,
Won't mean nothin' when I'm gone,
Here I stand, I don't need defending

And I've got everything I need,
I hear voices telling me-
I gotta ride on, ride on, Soldier Blue,
Ride on, ride on, ride on Soldier Blue,
Well, that's all I can do.

Night time comes, I can feel thunder
From those drivin' wheels.
Now I need something to remimd me-
That a long time ago,
When I was on the run, I found my home
In the setting sun-
I gotta ride on, ride on, ride on Soldier Blue,
I gotta ride on, ride on, ride on Soldier Blue.
