[00:28.41] Liars and murderers,
[00:29.90] pale faced intruders
[00:31.66] Came one day to our shores
[00:35.41] Years of deceit and
[00:37.16] injustice and greed
[00:39.16] Led to the crimes and the wars
[00:42.91] Hopelessly wronged,
[00:44.66] dragged from our homes
[00:46.40] Placed into stockades
[00:49.91] Loaded on wagons as cattle or sheep
[00:56.16] Silently filled with this rage
[00:58.15] And all through the nights,
[00:59.65] we sang and we cried
[01:01.66] holding on dearly
[01:04.41] What gives you the right
[01:06.65] to do this
[01:08.16] Who are the savages now!
[01:12.65] It's a trail of tears,
[01:15.40] keep home fires burning
[01:18.41] We're on a trail of tears,
[01:21.91] to were dreams go to die
[01:34.41] .
[01:40.16] Suffering and dying,
[01:41.66] enduring the cold
[01:43.41] Oppression without regret
[01:46.90] Wantonly stealing our land and our gold
[01:50.65] The Cherokee will not forget
[01:54.66] And all through the nights,
[01:56.91] we sang and we cried
[01:58.91] holding on dearly
[02:02.16] Four thousand graves along the way
[02:05.15] Who are the savages now!
[02:09.66] It's a trail of tears,
[02:12.15] keep home fires burning
[02:16.90] We're on a trail of tears,
[02:19.66] to were dreams go to die
[02:43.65] .
[03:07.15] And all through the nights,
[03:08.41] we sang and we cried
[03:10.40] holding on dearly
[03:13.65] Four thousand graves along the way
[03:16.16] Who are the savages now!
[03:21.15] It's a trail of tears,
[03:23.91] keep home fires burning
[03:28.41] We're on a trail of tears,
[03:31.16] to were dreams go to die
[03:37.65] .
[03:37.91] It's a trail of tears,
[03:38.91] for our homes we are yearning
[03:43.15] We're on a trail of tears,
[03:45.41] to were dreams go to die
[03:53.66] were dreams go to die
