Johnny Cash The Vanishing Race Lyrics

The Vanishing Race Lyrics

Oh, wagon trains rollin' along

They fade from my visions and in time will be gone

I, I see an eagle in space

My people will follow oh oh, a vanishing race



An Indian brave rolled along one day

On a lonely mountain trail

And he gazed below with a heart of woe

Where the prairie schooners sail



A vision formed like a mortal storm

In the dust of the wagon train

A vanishing race appeared in space

And he sang his sad refrain



Oh, wagon trains rollin' along

They fade from my visions and in time will be gone

I, I see an eagle in space

And my people will follow a vanishing race



Oh, now great spirits on high

Please spare them the sorrow you show to my eye

Now my blankets are roll

And I ride to the valley of the brave Navajo

And I ride to the valley of the brave Navajo

A vanishing Navajo
