The Johnny Cash Show and Buffy Saint-Marie ( Videos, Lyrics)

Johnny Cash and Buffy Sainte-Marie perform ‘Custer,’ from Cash’s Bitter Tears album, on Season 1, Episode 4 of The Johnny Cash Show, July 5, 1969.Singing a  a duet and playing the mouthbow, with Johnny Cash.
 -Episode 4 - Guests:

* Buffy Sainte-Marie
* Doug McClure
* The Cowsills

The show was recorded at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium, then home of the Grand Ole Opry
One thing Peter LaFarge, Buffy Sainte-Marie and Johnny Cash have in common is that they are all basically storytellers. This tends to be true of most First Nations people. The art of storytelling was always a highly regarded and highly valued trait. They just went one step further and turned their stories into music or a story with musical accompaniment.

Custer Song Lyrics

Now I will tell you buster that I ain't a fan of Custer

And the General he don't ride well anymore

To some he was a hero but to me his score was zero

And the General he don't ride well anymore

Now Custer done his fightin' without too much excitin'

And the General he don't ride well anymore

General Custer come in pumpin' when the men were out a huntin'

But the General he don't ride well anymore

With victories he was swimmin' he killed children dogs and women

But the General he don't ride well anymore

Crazy Horse sent out the call just to Sitting Bull and Gall

And the General he don't ride well anymore

Now Custer split his men well he won't do that again

Cause the General he don't ride well anymore

Twelve thousand warriors waited they were unanticipated

And the General he don't ride well anymore

It's not called an Indian victory but a bloody massacre

And the General he don't ride well anymore

There might have been more enthusin' if us Indians had been losin'

But the General he don't ride well anymore

General George A.Custer oh his yellow hair had lustre

But the General he don't ride well anymore

For now the General's silent he got bombarded violent

And the General he don't ride well anymore

Oh the General he don't ride well anymore

No No Keshagesh with lyrics

I never saw so many business suits
Never knew a dollar sign could look so cute
Never knew a junkie with a money jones
Who's buying Park Place? Who's buying Boardwalk?

These old men they make their dirty deals
Go in the back room and see what they can steal
Talk about your beautiful for spacious skies
It's about uranium. It's about the water rights

Got Mother Nature on a luncheon plate
They carve her up and call it real estate
Want all the resources and all of the land
They make a war over it; they blow things up for it

The reservation out at Poverty Row
The cookin's cookin and the lights are low
Somebody tryin to save our Mother Earth I'm gonna
Help em to Save it and Sing it and Pray it singin

No No Keshagesh*** you can't do that no more.

Ol Columbus he was lookin good
When he got lost in our neighborhood
Garden of Eden right before his eyes
Now it's all spyware Now it's all income tax

Ol Brother Midas lookin hungry today
What he can't buy he'll get some other way
Send in the troopers if the Natives resist
Same old story, boys; that's how ya do it , boys

Look at these people Lord they're on a roll
Got to have it all; gotta have complete control
Want all the resources and all of the land
They break the law over it; blow things up for it

While all our champions are off in the war
Their final rippoff here at home is on
Mister Greed I think your time has come I'm gonna
Sing it and Say it and Live it and Pray it singin

No No Keshagesh you can't do that no more.

Keshagesh means Greedy Guts. It's what you call a little puppy who eats his own and then wants everybody else's.

Keshagesh*** : Greedy Guts. It's what you call a little puppy who eats his own and then wants everybody else's.
