Golden Feather

I think I'll go on back to Shenandoah
She said that she'd meet me by the fork in the road
I jump start my one-eyed Ford
I'm heading for the pow-wow
I follow the red path that leads to you

I gave my love a golden feather
I gave my love a heart of stone
When you find a golden feather
It means you'll never lose your way back home

Should I paint my face
Should I pierce my skin
Does this make me a pagan
Sweating out my sin
We ate the sacred mushroom
And waded in the water
Howling like coyotes
At the naked moon

I gave my love a golden feather
I gave my love a heart of stone
And when you find a golden feather
It means you'll never lose your way back home

In the autumn night
When there's no wind blowin'
I could hear the stars falling in the dark
When you find out what's worth keeping
With a breath of kindness
Blow the rest away

I gave my love a golden feather
I gave my love a heart of stone
And when you find a golden feather
It means you'll never lose your way back home, oh

I gave my love a golden feather
I gave my love a heart of stone
And when you find a golden feather
It means you'll never lose your way back home

Golden feather
