You know what I'm talking about
Yeah that's right

Well, many years ago
There was a man
He was doing things
That no one could seem to understand

But those times were strained
Some things went bad, I can't explainm no
All I know for sure is
His spirit still remains

Cherokee warrior
You lost the battle, that's for suren oh no!
But what you left behind
Let me tell you, is still shining
Cherokee warrior
You lost the battle, that's for sure, oh no!But what you left behind
But what you left behind
It's still shining

When you came out of nowhere
You set the world ablaze
But you didn't belong here
So you left us all amazed.
In our hearts your still alive
Though you tasted all the forbidden fruit
Now it's so hard to describe
Why in the end you had to lose.

Cherokee warrior
You lost the battle, that's for sure, oh no!
But what you left behind
Let me tell you, is still shining
Cherokee warriorYou lost the battle, that's for sure, oh no!
But what you left behind
But what you left behind
It's still shining.

But what you left behind
But what you left behind
It's still shining

Still shining
