Johnny Cash Album: Bitter Tears: Ballads of the American Indian Track: Custer Custer Lyrics (Peter La Farge) © '63 Alpha Musicana, BMI Now I will tell you buster that I ain't a fan of Custer And the General he don't ride well anymore To some he was a hero but to me his score was zero And the General he don't ride well anymore Now Custer done his fightin' without too much excitin' And the General he don't ride well anymore General Custer come in pumpin' when the men were out a huntin' But the General he don't ride well anymore With victories he was swimmin' he killed children dogs and women But the General he don't ride well anymore Crazy Horse sent out the call just to Sitting Bull and Gall And the General he don't ride well anymore Now Custer split his men well he won't do that again Cause the General he don't ride well anymore Twelve thousand warriors waited they were unanticipated And the General he don't ride well anymore It's not called an Indian victory but a bloody massacre And the General he don't ride well anymore There might have been more enthusin' if us Indians had been losin' But the General he don't ride well anymore General George A.Custer oh his yellow hair had lustre But the General he don't ride well anymore For now the General's silent he got barbered violent And the General he don't ride well anymore Oh the General he don't ride well anymore
