Don't Go Near the Indians - Rex Allen
Written by：Lorene Mann
Son don't go near the Indians
Please stay away
Son don't go near the Indians
Please do what I say
Since I was just a little boy
I liked to roam the hills
And to hear wild stories about the Indians
Was my biggest thrill
I'd shout and run and holler like them
I wore moccasins on my feet
And make believe I was under a tee pee
Every time I went to sleep
My hair was jet black and I was twenty one
Lots of pretty girls around
But the paleface maidens didn't thrill me none
Around my cochise county hometown
Son don't go near the Indians
Please stay away
Son don't go near the Indians
Please do what I say
One day I went to the reservation
And there by a shallow creek
Was a beautiful Indian a fetchin' water
And I just had to speak
She smiled at me then quickly left
But the next day she returned
And it wasn't very long till I told her how
The love in my heart burned
Son don't go near the Indians
Please stay away
Son don't go near the Indians
Please do what I say
I told my daddy I'd found a girl
Who meant the world to me
And tomorrow I'd ask the Indian chief
For the hand of novalee
Dad's trembling lips spoke softly
As he told me of my life
Twas then he said I could never take
This maiden for my wife
Son the white man and Indianss were fighting when you were born
And a brave called yellow sun scalped my little boy
So I stole you to get even for what he'd done
Though you're a full blooded Indian son
I love you as much as my own little feller that's dead
And son novalee is your sister
And that's why I've always said
Son don't go near the Indians
Please stay away
Son don't go near the Indians
