We were 14 days from Toronto
With a handmade highway for a friend
Well, Dave fear, we were due to see a town
He thought he saw some smoke drift 'round the bend
It was ten o'clock, when the Mohawks hit
And the fun had just begun
They tied a friend of mine with binder twine
And left him to dry in the sun
Well, Dave dropped first with an arrow in the head
And his horse Smiley she fell screaming
Dave looked at me and saw the blood in his hands
He stared ahead like he was dreaming
It was ten o'clock when the Mohawks hit
And the fun had just begun
They tied a friend of mine with binder twine
And left him to dry in the sun
Sun, sun, sun
I made the bushes, oh, I don't know how
And lay there silent and sobbing
I looked at Dave and I peered at Bill
I saw their lifeblood dropping
As the Indians continue, I thought the rhyme
I can't stop myself from repeating
They tied a friend of mine with binder twine
And left him to dry in the sun
