01 Jim Bridger Lyrics

	作词 : Johnny Horton
	作曲 : Johnny Horton
	Once there was a mountain man who couldn't write his name
	Yet he deserves the front row seat in History's Hall of Fame
	He forgot more about the Indians than we will ever know
	He spoke the language of the Sioux the Black Foot and the Crow
	(Let's drink to old Jim Bridger yes lift your glasses high)
	As long as there's the USA don't let his memory die
	(That he was making history never once occured to him)
	But I doubt if we'd been here if it weren't for men like Jim
	[ ac.guitar ]
	He spoke with General Custer and said listen Yellow Hair
	The Sioux are the great nation so treat 'em fair and square
	Sit in on their war councils, don't laugh away their pride
	But Custer didn't listen at Little Big Horn Custer died
	(Let's drink to old Jim Bridger...
	[ ac.guitar ]
	There's poems and there's legends that tell of Carson's fame
	Yet compared to Jim Bridger Kit was civilized and tame
	These words are straight from Carson's lips if you place that story by him
	If there's a man who knows this God forsaken land it's Jim
	(Let's drink to old Jim Bridger...
