I rode all the way from California right bewteen my ma and pa
|
When the rifles started firing we were three days out of Omaha
|
Three days out of Omaha
|
I was raised by an Indian warrior way out on some Kansas plain
|
I guess that's why they call me red skin cause no one ever knew my name
|
No one ever knew my name
|
When I die don't you weep for me for I've been in trouble with the law
|
And if you're lookin' for a place to bury me take me three days out of Omaha
|
People often stop and wonder they ask me bout my ma and pa
|
The only thing I know to tell them they're somewhere three days out of Omaha
|
Three days out of Omaha

When I die don't you weep for me...
