jackie o

jackie o went ridin'

to the wounded knee. jackie o was killed

in the battle in 73. i was his last friend

and i watched him die. as the angel grabbed him

i said: fly jackie fly!

jackie went from pain and misery

to join the warriors

down at wounded knee

i watched the dying jackie

until the morning broke

the distant thunder faded

of the blue-shirts second stroke. i knew the fight was over

and we had lost again

both here and in south dakota

where i had lost a friend!

jackie went from pain and misery

to join the warriors

down at wounded knee
