  • Quote from Geronimo:
    "I was warmed by the sun, rocked by the winds and sheltered by the trees as other Indian babes. I was living peaceably when people began to speak bad of me. Now I can eat well, sleep well and be glad. I can go everywhere with a good feeling".
    Geronimo (June 16, 1829 -- February 17, 1909) was a prominent Native American leader and medicine man of the Chiricahua Apache who fought against Mexico and the United States and their expansion into Apache tribal lands for several decades during the Apache Wars.
    Lorne Greene (February 12, 1915 -- September 11, 1987), was the stage name of Lyon Himan Green, OC, a Canadian actor.
    His television roles include Ben Cartwright on the western Bonanza, and Commander Adama in the science fiction TV Series Battlestar Galactica. He also worked on the Canadian television nature documentary series Lorne Greene's New Wilderness, and in television commercials as a dog food spokesman.
    "Saying that there's nothing quite like hearing Lorne Greene sing is something of an understatement: the man who starred as a patriarch in Battlestar Galactica, Code Red, and, most memorably, Bonanza, has a preposterously booming, uncomfortable-sounding baritone that makes him sound as though he's never quite sure of what's going on around him".

    Geronimo was only 5' 4" tall. And when a young trooper said, "I thought he'd be bigger." An old frontier scout replied, "He was big enough."

      There are two actors in the world that can tell you that 2×2=7 and you'll believe it's true.
      The other one is Morgan Freeman.

    When Geronimo finally agreed to surrender to the army, Geronimo asked the general if he would sign the treaty. The general said, "no, Geronimo, the president will.". Geronimo asked "who is the president". The general explained he was the great white father. Geronimo asked where does he live? The general said "in Washington". Geronimo said "then I will NOT sign, only if you sign". The general asked why. Geronimo replied "because all men from Washington are liars!"

    Geronimo wasn't shot he was sent to Florida with his people n all Apache army scouts that helped capture him. He was later n a Wild West show n made a lot of money before his death. He is buried in Oaklahoma the Government won't allow his family to bring him back to Arizona. RIP.

    Nice song, but point of view is dead wrong. Like an Indian Chief said in those days; "The White Man made us many promises. He broke them all; except that he would destroy us....That promise he kept" Read the book "Bury my Heart at Wounded Knee" or listen to the song of Thin Lizzy: "Genocide" (Tekst below)When they try to tell you knowledge is a dangerous thing
    "it's such a dangerous thing"
    The people that have it are the people that sin
    And the people that need it are the people that can never win
    Let me get you out of here little broken wing
    There are people round here that are right
    There are people round here that like to sleep at night
    There are people round here that go slow
    There are people round here that don't kindly to the killing of the buffalo
    When they tear up all the treaties and break up all the plans
    "they break up all the plans"
    Did you do your duty and kill on command?
    Did you know the redman used to roam this land?
    "he used to roam this land"
    Now the souls of lost warriors blow across the sands
    People round here they get it right
    People round here we like to sleep at night
    There are people round here that go slow
    People round here that don't take kindly to the killing of the buffalo, oh no
    So listen to my story and listen to it well
    "you better listen well"
    Listen to the glory of the gory details of the tale I tell
    Did you know the redman very well?
    "i used to know him well"
    Did you know the hunting ground before it became a hell?
    There are people round here that are right
    There are people round here that like to sleep at night
    There are people round here I don't know
    There are people round here that don't take kindly to the killing of the Buffalo
    So listen to my story of GENOCIDE
    How they were hunted and slaughtered till there was no place left to hide
    Did you know the redman used to hold his head with pride?
    Till every man, woman and child were destroyed
    There are people round here that get it right
    There are people round here that couldn't sleep at night
    There are people round here I don't know
    There are people round here that don't take kindly to the killing of the buffalo
    There are people round here that understand
    There are people round here that couldn't give a damn
    There are people round here that go slow
    There are people round here that don't take too kindly to the killing of the Buffalo (

    I love this song. But Geronimo was not a bandit or a bad guy. he was a hero and fought against an invading hoard.
    But i'm happy the white man feared him. That's what you get for the trail of tears
