letra de mingo, the man with the bullwhip - ed ames
in the days before our country became it’s own
there was a man who walked this land as free as the wind
as rugged as the kentucky wilderness
tall as the timber, coppery skin the color of the earth he walked
his mind as quick as his lighting hand
and they called him mingo
the man with the bullwhip
his father was british
his mother cherokee
he’d come back from england
so he could be free
and he loved this land
where there was room to run
to touch a passing star
or to follow the sun
and they called him mingo
the man with the bullwhip
the settlers were led
by a brave just man
in buckskin clothes
a long rifle in his hand
mingo was the friend
who walked at his side
with a london education
and the cherokee’s pride
yes, they called him mingo
the man with the bullwhip
he knew the redcolts joined
with the cherokee tribe
not a union of love
as his father and his bride
so as he rode away
from the settlement at night
he still didn’t know
on which side he’d have to fight
and they called him mingo
the man with the bullwhip
no matter what he did
it would be against his will
for buckskin or redskin
he’d soon have to k!ll
as the buckskin man
took his gun in hand
mingo and his warriors
they took their stand
then he raised his bullwhip
and he drew his knife
and the buckskin man
knew he’d have to take his life
the life of mingo
the man with the bullwhip
the whip lashed like lightening
at the rifle sound
it caught the big mans arm
and it took him to the ground
mingo raised his knife
high above his head
and he cut that whip in half
it was then that he said
now that bullwhip will never come between you and me
the buckskin and the redskin together will both walk free
and they called him mingo
the man with the bullwhip
so if you hear the crack of a bullwhip
just look up and see
there’s a tall man walks
where men will be free
it’s the man called mingo
man with the bullwhip
