Piasa 歌词

Long, long ago only animals roamed Storm Bird lived in a river cave His cave lined with Buffalo bones After our people arrived on Earth Storm Bird captured one of our men From that day on he threatened us all A loud roar and a flapping sound Piasa coming out of his cave All knew something had to be done Ouatoga was our great chief He would find a way to kill the beast He withdrew into fast and solitude Ask the Great Spirit to show the way He told all to hide in their teepees Twenty warriors opposite the beasts’ cave Dressed in war bonnet our chief did stand Without weapons in the open land Storm-Bird saw the chief and let out a roar It spread its’ wings and flew at the chief Ouatoga stood chanting death songs Instantly the warriors let loose arrows The Storm Bird was struck in the side Into the water the Storm Bird died A bird like monster painted high on the bluffs Large as a calf with horns like a deer Deep red eyes and a tigers beard Face like man body covered in scales Paisa legend, the Storm bird lives on
