Fifty miles from Dakota territory

Cheyenne scalp hangs from his belt

a steady aim and he bagged his game

Pale sun falls without contest

Here is obedient darkness

He will not return
8
White Cadillac, white man at the wheel,
9
white faces on the mountain,
10
wounds that will never heal

Black clouds overhead, old man says
12
looks like rain
13
Thieves' Road winds to the Black Hills sign
14
says South Dakota, U.S.A.

not a soul can be found on them

They will not return

Old rusted pickup and a mad dog in the yard,
19
purple paint peels but fails to reveal

the bitterness that grows inside
21
Cloud of dust in the distance,
22
strange knock beneath my hood

Pale sun falls without contest
26
Here is obedient darkness
27
It will return
28
I know it will return
29
It will return
