Golden Arrow
Composer(s): Harry Williams; Egbert Van Alstyne



Out in the shade of a glade sat a maid
with burning cheeks all aglow
Eyes black as night
but as bright as the light of any sunset in Idaho
For by her side was the pride of a tribe
the son of Chief Arrow-Bow 
And in the ear of his dear
sweet and clear
he whispered low

She then replied "I'm your bride by your side
We'll hunt the big buffalo
I'll be your dear, never fear, ever near
For I'm your Arrow and you're my beau
You lead the way where you may from today
for you must guide me, you know" 
"Then I can see we'll agree
come with me," said Arrow-Bow

"My little Golden Arrow I love you 
You've pierced my heart it's true 
pretty Sioux, through and through 
Take me to be your fallen sparrow, do 
For Golden Arrow my life belongs to you"
