Mr. Custer

Mr. Custer - Larry Verne

Written by：Joseph Van Winkle/Fred Darian/Al DeLory

That famous day in history

The men of the 7th Cavalry went riding on

And from the rear a voice was heard

A brave young man

With a trembling word rang loud and clear

What am I doin' here

Please Mr. Custer I don't wanna go

Hey Mr. Custer please don't make me go

I had a dream last night about the comin' fight

Somebody yelled attack

And there I stood with a arrow in my back

Please Mr. Custer I don't wanna go

Forward ho

Aww no

Look at them but she's out there

They're moving and there's a Injun behind every one

Hey Mr. Custer you mind if I be excused

The rest of the afternoon

Hey Charlie duck yer head

Hmm you're a little bit late on that one

Charlie Hooh I bet that smarts

They were sure of victory

The men of the 7th Cavalry

As they rode on

But then from the rear a voice was heard

That same brave voice

With the trembling word rang loud and clear

What am I doin' here

Please Mr. Custer I don't wanna go

Listen Mr. Custer please don't make me go

There's a redskin and waitin' out there

Just fixing to take my hair

A coward I've been called

Cuz I don't wanna wind up dead or bald

Please Mr. Custer I don't wanna go

Forward ho

Aww no

I wonder what the Injun word for friend is

Let's see friend

Kemo sabe that's it

Kemo sabe hey out there kemo sabe

Nope that it not here

Look at them down

They're runnin' around like

A bunch of wild Indians heh heh heh

Nah this ain't no time for jokin'
