Song Lyrics
Fighting for his people and his soul, home from viet nam to wounded knee, somewhere in the land of sitting bull
Murdered like the holy buffalo, oh johnny lobo
Locked inside a heaven gone to hell, burning down old memories again
Loaded down with lessons that he carried, johnny lobo burned a flag he knew had been dishonored, burned it to the ground
Home from viet nam to wounded knee, home from viet nam to wounded knee
Paid the price for thinking he was free, oh johnny lobo, burned it to the ground
In a darkened corner of a tavern, later when the bitter tears were falling to the ashes
Something good in johnny lobo died, fighting for his people and his soul
Something good in johnny lobo died, murdered like the holy buffalo Kris, someone set his house on fire
Oh johnny lobo, locked inside a heaven gone to hell
Johnny lobo burned a flag he knew had been dishonored, something good in johnny lobo died
oh johnny lobo
Somewhere in the land of sitting bull, and the battle s just begun
Once upon a dusty reservation, johnny lobo burned a flag he knew had been dishonored
Locked inside a heaven gone to hell, oh johnny lobo, in a darkened corner of a tavern
Oh johnny lobo, something good in johnny lobo died
Johnny lobo stares into the smoke and dream of clouds, all the dreams were gone but not forgotten, johnny lobo stares into the smoke and dream of clouds
Johnny lobo stares into the smoke and dream of clouds, all the dreams were gone but not forgotten Kristofferson, oh johnny lobo
Burning down old memories again, later when the bitter tears were falling to the ashes
Loaded down with lessons that he carried, somewhere in the land of sitting bull
Home from viet nam to wounded knee, later when the bitter tears were falling to the ashes, johnny lobo s warrior heart was burnished in the embers
