Indian Rainsong
Glory Bells
It happened a long time ago
when we listened to the indian rainsong
The fire couldn't die, the indians where high
and the spirit was around when they where dancing
The women looked at the warriors
when they danced in circles
Hands in the sky, they didn't know why
but it helped to give them water
The medicine man began to pray
He could stand there day after day
The medicine man said to his people:
Keep on dancing, in Grand Canyon
Screaming voices filled the air,
when the door opened for the tears of heaven,
because the rain makes life
and hopes to survive
The medicine man began to pray
He could stand there day after day
The medicine man said to his people:
The buffaloes need water to survive
Snakes where hiding in the sand
in the hot desert land
and the eagle was flying high
when the rain came from the sky
It happened a long time ago
when we listened to the indian rainsong
The fire couldn't die, the indians where high
and the spirit was around when they where dancing
The medicine man began to pray
He could stand there day after day
The medicine man said to his people:
Keep on dancing, in Grand Canyon
