Miles Beyond Crazy Horse
Born on the Republic River
In the year 1845
Crazy Horse was a proud warrior
Did all he could to help his tribe survive
The Sioux chiefs agreed
That the white man must be met with force
For them to succeed
They would be led by Crazy Horse
In the past they had welcomed white traders
And permitted the Oregon Trail
But now forts were built on their land
How could their gratitude fail?
He led the attack on Fort Phil Kearny
It was his first claim to fame
Some tribes were still seeking peace
While his love of battle was on full display
The Sioux chiefs agreed
That the white man must be met with force
For them to succeed
They would be led by Crazy Horse
Sitting Bull sent word that white soldiers
Would fight the Sioux to a finish
Crazy Horse took 700 men
To take care of their nemesis
They stopped at Little Big Horn
Where they were met by Custer’s men
Crazy horse foiled Custer’s plans
And he claimed victory once again
The Sioux chiefs agreed
That the white man must be met with force
For them to succeed
They would be led by Crazy Horse
He bested one of the most brilliant
Leaders of the Civil War
They found until there were no white men
Alive at Little Big Horn
