| Description: |
Ride, Gabriel, Ride!
Ride, Gabriel, Ride! Ride, Gabriel, Ride! With Le Petit* right by your side Ride, Gabriel, Ride! Ride, Gabriel, Ride! In the fall of the year buffalo would run Gabriel would ride out with his gun To get some meat for the winter supply ‘cause he knew that his people could starve and die. Chorus He’d hunt until he needed no more Then he’d hunt for the sick and poor The lame and the old and the ones with no guns He called it the “Society of Generous Ones”. Chorus And when they had all they could eat Gabriel put away Le Petit Then they’d get out the fiddles and they’d dance and sing And that’s what they liked more than anything! Chorus ©Don Freed *"Le Petit" – the name Gabriel Dumont gave to his short hunting rifle |
