THE COUNCIL HOUSE
By JCStreet © 2004
Come the Comanche riding
riding and riding the
Comanche are coming, riding
to the Council House
riding and riding
riding and unarmed to the Truce place
riding and unarmed
Fall the Comanches
dying, dying, dying
at the Council House
unarmed at the Truce place
Falling and dying, quivering
quivering in the dust
at the Truce place
and the birds cry
Penateka, Penataka, Penataka
at the Truce place
falling and dying at the Truce place, quivering
quivering in the dust of
San Antonio
