Last of the Mohicans

Today I buried ny son
No father should bury his son
Especially, when he is the last of his tribe
Today my heart is bleeding!

1757 the story began
Alice and Cora and a british young man
Ambushed they fall into enemy's hands
Magua the Snake is taking his chance

Hawkeye and the indians right on his track
Hunting jim down in the attack
Magua flees, becoming a ghost
So Fort William-Henry a shelter supposed

His soul's flying on th wind
The valleys to roam
Free on the hunting grounds
Manitou gave him a home

He became the last of the mohicans
When his son died in his arms
He became the last of his zodiac of his tribe
When he buried his son in his heart

All soldiers dead, the two girls are gone
Unkas to follow to Delaware's home
The sign of the Tortoise is saving his life
Magua flees to make Cora his wife

Follow the Huron, to bring him to death
Grinding his tribe, taking its breath
Magua is running and two of his men
He drags along Cora right by the hand

Right through the cave, abductors are trapped
The death of the cliff is holding them back
Cora is murdered so Unkas attacks
By Magua's knife he's stabbed in the back

1757 the story began
Unkas had died right at the end
The Mohicans fade, the end of the tribe
Chingachgook robbed of his pride
