Lyrics
The lyrics as written by Williams:
- 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.
- Chorus:
- "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."
- (repeat)
- 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.
- (Chorus)
