Put Geronimo in jail down south
Where he couldn't look
A gift horse in the mouth
Took old Geronimo by storm
Ripped off the feathers from his uniform
[Chorus:]
Oh boys take me back
I wanna ride in Geronimo's cadillac
Oh boys take me back
I wanna ride in Geronimo's cadillac
Sergeant, Sergeant oh
Don't you feel
There's something wrong
With your automobile
Warden, warden oh
Listen to me
Be brave and set Geronimo free
Governor, governor oh
Isn't it strange
You never see a car
On the Indian range
[Chorus]
People, people oh
Don't you know
The Indian's got no place to go
Jesus told me, and I believe it's true
The red man's in the sunset too
Took our land
Now they won't give it back
They sent Geronimo a cadillac
[Chorus x2]
Where he couldn't look
A gift horse in the mouth
Took old Geronimo by storm
Ripped off the feathers from his uniform
[Chorus:]
Oh boys take me back
I wanna ride in Geronimo's cadillac
Oh boys take me back
I wanna ride in Geronimo's cadillac
Sergeant, Sergeant oh
Don't you feel
There's something wrong
With your automobile
Warden, warden oh
Listen to me
Be brave and set Geronimo free
Governor, governor oh
Isn't it strange
You never see a car
On the Indian range
[Chorus]
People, people oh
Don't you know
The Indian's got no place to go
Jesus told me, and I believe it's true
The red man's in the sunset too
Took our land
Now they won't give it back
They sent Geronimo a cadillac
[Chorus x2]
