RED WING
There once lived an indian maid
A shy little prairie maid
Who sang a lay, a love song gay
As on the plain she'd while away the day
She loved a warrior bold
This shy little maid of old
But blythe and gay, he rode one day
To battle far away
* REFRAIN:
Now, the moon shines tonight on pretty Red Wing
The breeze is sighing, the night bird's crying
For far neath his star her brave is sleeping
While Red Wings weeping her heart away
She watched thru the day and night
She kept all the campfires bright
And under the sky, each night she would lie
And dream about his coming by and by
But when all the braves returned
The heart of Red Wing yearned
For Brave one day, her warrior gay
Fell bravely in the fray
* Refrain
