[00:33.85] They lived in peace, not long ago
[00:38.25] A mighty Indian tribe
[00:42.50] But the winds of change,
[00:44.63] Made them realize, that the promises were lies.
[00:49.65]
[00:51.14] The white man's greed, in search of gold
[00:55.45] Made the nation bleed
[00:59.82] They lost their faith
[01:02.08] And now they hade to learn
[01:03.99] There was no place to return
[01:06.59] Nowhere they could turn.
[01:09.76]
[01:11.20] Cherokee - marching on the trail of tears.
[01:19.65] Cherokee - marching on the trail of tears.
[01:27.17]
[01:34.20] They were driven hard, across the plains
[01:38.72] And walked for many moons
[01:42.95] Cause the winds of change,
[01:45.21] Had made them realize, that the promises were lies.
[01:50.70]
[01:51.63] So much to bear, all that pain
[01:56.14] Left them in despair
[02:00.17] They lost their faith
[02:02.51] And now they hade to learn
[02:04.69] There was no place to return
[02:06.93] Nowhere they could turn
[02:11.67] Cherokee - marching on the trail of tears.
[02:20.16] Cherokee - marching on the trail of tears.
[03:25.15] Cherokee - marching on the trail of tears.
[03:33.63] Cherokee - marching on the trail of tears.
[03:42.42] Cherokee - marching on the trail of tears.
[03:50.97] Cherokee - marching on the trail of tears.
