That famous day in history
The men of the 7th Cavalry
Went riding on
And from the rear a voice was heard
A brave young man with a trembling word
Rang loud and clear
What am I doing here?
Please, Mr. Custer
I don't want to go
Hey, Mr. Custer
Please don't make me go
I had a dream last night
About the coming fight
Somebody yelled attack
And the men of the 7th Cavalry
Went riding on
And from the rear a voice was heard
What am I doing here?
Please, Mr. Custer
I don't want to go
I don't want to go
No
Look at them bushes out there
They're moving
And there's engines behind every one
Hey, Mr. Custer
You might as well beg excuse the rest of the afternoon
Hey, Charlie, duck your head
I'm not going to go
Well, you're a little bit late on that one, Charlie
Whew, I bet that's smart
They were sure of victory
The men of the 7th Cavalry
As they rode on
But then from the rear a voice was heard
That same great voice with a trembling word
Rang loud and clear
What am I doing here?
Please, Mr. Custer
I don't want to go
I don't want to go
Listen, Mr. Custer
Please don't make me go
I don't want to go
There's a red skin waiting out there
He's fixing to take my hair
A coward I've been called
Cause I don't want to wind up dead
Or born
Please, Mr. Custer
I don't want to go
Or born
No
I wonder what the engine word for friend is
Say friend
Kimisabe, that's it
Kimisabe
Hey out there, Kimisabe
No, that isn't it
Look at them out there
They're running around like a bunch of wild Indians
Ha ha ha
Now this ain't no time for joking
Ssss
Ssss
