From the recording The Revenge of Buffalo Mac
Lyrics
A blaze arose, my gun kept close
Got 24 bullets for twenty-four Polks
After what they did, killed my next of kin
Tried to kill me, now I’m after them
Never felt
Anything like
The feeling that’s
In my heart tonight
I let them down
What can I do?
To bring honor, justice
And truth to you
Can’t act tough, no not at all
Don’t say nothing or act too tall
My own family’s gone
No life around
They came to my farm
Just to burn it down
Never felt
Anything like
The feeling that’s
In my heart tonight
I let them down
What can I do?
To bring honor, justice
And truth to you
Orange sky glaze trapped a smokey haze
The house went up in that burning blaze
My life’s hard work, reduced to earth
Nothing left, you know the silence hurts
