To The Shining Mountains (Album Version) - Johnny Cash

作词：Johnny Cash

Yes went they through the Lehigh Valley

To Lake Erie past Virginia

And the land called out its challenge

Bring your men to match our mountains

See the green Ohio Valley

See the Cumberland the Wabash

On the Tennessee they floated

On great rafts to the Mississippi

And the Cherokee and Shawnee

And the Creek and The Ojibwa

And the Choctaw and the Quapaw

And all the tribes along the rivers

[Incomprehensible] that they were coming

That the white man was upon them

They built their homes along the rivers

Built their churches brought their preachers

Came upon the white misery

Stopped before the shining mountains

Many died from the beginning

For the freedom of America

Like that day down in New Orleans
