Dan Fogelberg Lyrics for Song: The Spirit Trail
 Lyrics for Album: The Wild Places [1990]
 
 
 
 29406>The light is long
 
 The sun is low
 
 I'm ridin' fast across this dusty road
 
 But I don't want to be
 
 No, I don't want to be
 
 
 
 Above the ridge an eagle flies
 
 In lazy circles in the western skies
 
 I want to fly with him
 
 I want to walk the spirit trail
 
 
 
 I've seen them come
 
 I've seen them go
 
 Off to the oilfields and rodeos
 
 To find a better way
 
 They leave their native soil
 
 
 
 But I can hear a different song
 
 The drum within my heart is beatin' strong
 
 I want to follow it
 
 I've got to walk the spirit trail
 
 
 
 Let every creature I've seen, whao ooo
 
 Be a brother and a friend to me
 
 Let every step that I take
 
 Leave the footprints of a warrior
 
 Along the spirit trail
 
 
 
 Heya heya heya hiyo
 
 Heya heya heya hiyo
 
 Heya heya heya hiyo
 
 Heya heya heya hiyo
 
 
 
 They took the land
 
 They took control
 
 They robbed my father of his very soul
 
 To be like one of them
 
 To be like one of them
 
 
 
 But I was born a native son
 
 And I will never be another one
 
 To give it all away
 
 I've got to walk the spirit trail
 
 
 
 Let every creature I'll seen, whao ooo
 
 Be a brother and a friend to me
 
 Let every step that I take
 
 Leave the footprints of a warrior
 
 Along the spirit trail
 
 
 
 Heya heya heya hiyo
 
 Heya heya heya hiyo
 
 Heya heya heya hiyo
 
 
 
 Let every creature I've seen, whao ooo
 
 Be a brother and a friend to me
 
 Let every step that I take
 
 Leave the footprints of a warrior
 
 Along the spirit trail
 
 
 
 Brother
 
 
 
 Heya heya heya hiyo
 
 Heya heya heya hiyo
 
 Heya heya heya hiyo
