Pulling into Douglas
On a hot October Night
On up above us
Theres a moon on the rise
Just off the blacktop
There's a sign along the road
And its marker
Where the place where
They got geronimo
For peace in the valley
Lay down his shield
And surrender
To the white man
Hot on his heels
Peace in the valley
But oh Geronimo
You can't raise up your children
And watch them grow
Without peace in the valley
Down below
He was a bonafide Indian chief
East Arizona was his pride and keep
Down through the Pacos
They tried to take him down
Til an hour from the boarder
Where they stopped and turned around
And cried peace in the valley
Lay down his shield
And surrender to the white man
Hot on his heel
Peace in the valley
But oh geronimo
You can't raise up your children
And watch them grow
Without peace in the valley
Down below
Peace in the valley
Lay down his sheild
And surrender
To the white man
Hot on his heel
Peace in the valley
But oh geronimo
You can't raise up your children
And watch them grow
Without peace in the valley
Down below
Peace in the valley
Down below
Peace in the valley
Down below
