Murder Lyrics
The blood of this family, it mingles
with the clay in the sinking riverbed
I tie the boy down and tear his mother gown
it's ok she's already dead.
I'll sell the boy and the horse's to the snake you cannot see
I cut open the white man and take from his woman too
If it were up to me all the white faces would bleed
and bleed and bleed and bleed it's true
Murder, It's murder
Murder, It's murder
Empty plains echo with empty screams
Theres a wagon on the highland
Father and his girl, both are heading south
I tie the boy and the horses
Then I use the skills of the wolf
I dont use a bullet, I get close enough I can use my knife
MY KNIFE!!!
I cut open the white man and take from his woman too
If it were up all the white faces would bleed
Reds a better color its true
Let the blood out, let it flow
Cut the blood out, let it flow
Kill the clood out, let it flow
Like a river
Let if flow, like a river
Let if flow, like a river
Let if flow, like a river into the sea.
with the clay in the sinking riverbed
I tie the boy down and tear his mother gown
it's ok she's already dead.
I cut open the white man and take from his woman too
If it were up to me all the white faces would bleed
and bleed and bleed and bleed it's true
Murder, It's murder
Theres a wagon on the highland
Father and his girl, both are heading south
I tie the boy and the horses
Then I use the skills of the wolf
I dont use a bullet, I get close enough I can use my knife
MY KNIFE!!!
If it were up all the white faces would bleed
Reds a better color its true
Cut the blood out, let it flow
Kill the clood out, let it flow
Like a river
Let if flow, like a river
Let if flow, like a river
Let if flow, like a river into the sea.

Eh, I did the best I could.
nice job. i think the one line is "one cut to open the white man" because i'm fairly certain the song is about native americans attacking white men in vengeance or something.
I think it goes like this:
The ???? family in ???? with the clay of the sinking river bed I tie the boy down and tear his mother's gown it's ok, she's already dead.
???? the boy and the horses to the snake you cannot see I cut open the white man and take from his women too. If it were up to me all the (their) white faces would bleed bleed and bleed and bleed this town.
Murder. It's murder Murder. It's murder
With a (the) blade take 'em with empty streams (doesn't make sense haha). There's a wagon on the heartland. Father brought his girl, both are headed south. I tie the boy and the horses. ???? use the skins of a wolf I don't use the bullets, get close enough I can use my knife. My knife!
I cut open the white man and take from his women too. If it were up to me all the (their) white faces would bleed ?????????????????? and child (?)
Cut the blood out, let it flow Cut the blood out, let it flow Cut the blood out, let it flow Like a river Let it flow or white man flow, like a river Let it flow, like a river Let it flow, like a river into the sea.

This song is about a book called Lonesome Dove and a native American named blue duck,that killed white men on the plains in the 1840's.The lonesome Dove is a favorite novel and movie of Nathan Wunneke's,the singer for Horse the band.
The CD is almost out!!!!!ONEONE1111111
or I could just illegaly download all of them now...bahahhahaha
i talked to the lead singer of HORSE the band personally, Nathan Winneke.
He said he saw a special or was reading a book of a lot of western mini-stories, one was called Murder by Blueduck, an indian who was seeking revenge and vengeance on the white men who took over his land and pillaged his village. striaght from the "horse's" mouth heh.
the break down of this song is so amazing i love being indian
while i realize that the inspiration for the song is from the Lonesome Dove series...i do not belive tyhats what the songs about..i think it could be abouit how the white man is destroying the earth and things would be better if all the white man were dead...but hey thats just my opinion i could be wrong...HORSE rulez
It's actually a little bit of both. Nathan Winneke is of both White European and Native American ancestry. This song was written on how he can agree with points from both sides of the story when regarding White European settlers versus Native Americans.
