The Flint Arrowhead - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)
While traveling this land from
Border to border and from sea to sea
There have a few occasions to leave the
Beaten path and to find the place
And quiet that's good for thought
And just walking through a trackless forest
Or exploring ruins of the earliest settlers
Or walking along a creek bed
Hoping to find a relic such as a Tomahawk an axe
Or even an arrowhead left by a race of long
Since vanished Indians
There's a great thrill and
It's a wonderful feeling to find a flint arrowhead
Over fields of new turned sod
And in communion with my God
I walked alone in a furrow bed
I found an arrowhead chiseled from stone
I don't know how long ago some redman
Drew his bow on its last fight
Or did he drop it here
Afraid white men were near to attack at night
I do know this one thing beyond
All questioning it was made to kill
And proof of a master trade is in this arrowhead
He made fashioned with skill
That I inherited this ground is denied by this stone
I've found but when and by who
Come join me in my tracks then
Let's stop and look back
To the vale and through
In love and peace we'll see the shadows
And the trees and voices too
But quietly slowly tread this home of the forgotten dead
Whose bones are dust
I'm proud that their craftsman's skill survives
The ages still left in my trust
