He was made for battle Driven by the gun Disobeying orders his ego would be on early grave He was known amongst them by his yellow hair Now hell shoot his gun for the very last time This will be Custers last stand What a great day to die And justice will be done And the eagle will fly When the battle has begun And a hero will rise He will be the one theyll all be talking about In a thousand years or more He was born a warrior One of a kind He will always be that Nothing could ever change his mind The spirit cant be broken The heart wont ever change Therell be no retreat No surrender He will not give up the land that is his What a great day to die And justice will be done And the eagle will fly When the battle has begun And a hero will rise He will be the one theyll all be talking about In a thousand years or more There will be no mercy For the wounded soldiers There is nothing they can do But we will remember That their bravery Was their very last mistake From above the battle the sun shines on the dead All the native women are taking scalps from the soldiers heads There is celebration there is victory They will never fight this way again They will never live this free again What a great day to die And justice will be done And the eagle will fly When the battle has begun And a hero will rise He will be the one theyll all be talking about In a thousand years or more What a great day to die And justice will be done And the eagle will fly When the battle has begun And a hero will rise He will be the one theyll all be talking about In a thousand years or more
