The Last Apache Lyrics

The last apache - Bolland & Bolland NL 1976

He was just a boy, they called him Rising Sun
He grew up proud and strong sound of ancient songs
Ringing in his ears for oh so many years

Now he's grown a man, the music dies
Just hear the sound of battlefights
Hear the shooting guns the soldiers rise
The Indian run

Ride on, Indian soldier, you want to be free
Give him back his country, he's the last Apache
The last Apache

Hear the distant drums fighting their last fight
It ended overnight, gave his life in vain
Rising Sun won't shine again

Ride on, Indian soldier, you want to be free
Give him back his country, he's the last Apache
The last Apache

Once the Indians were free
To live in their own country
Then came the white man
He took away their land
And only one of them survived
He is the last Apache

Ride on, Indian soldier, you want to be free
Give him back his country, he's the last Apache
The last Apache... The last Apache
The last Apache... The last Apache
