Well they're goin' to educate me to the white men's Golden Rule
G# C# G#
And I am learning very quickly for I've learned to be ashamed

And I come when they call "Billy" though I've got an Indian name
[Chorus]

And there are Drums beyond the Mountain There are Drums that you
G#
cannnot hear
C# G# D#7
There are Drums beyond the Mountain and they're getting mighty
G#

[Verse 2]
G# C#
And when they thought that they had changed me cut my hair to

Will they think I'm white or Indian quarter Blood or just half breed

Let me tell you Mr teacher when you say you'll make me right

In five hundred years of fighting not one Indian turned white
[Chorus]

And there are Drums beyond the Mountain There are Drums that you
G#
cannnot hear
C# G# D#7
There are Drums beyond the Mountain and they're getting mighty
G#

Well you thought that I knew nothing when you brought me here to
G#
your school
C# G# D#7 G#
Just another empty Indian just America's first fool
G# C# G#
But now I can tell you stories that are burnt and dried and old
C# G# D#7 G#
But in the shadow of their telling walks the Thunder proud and bold
[Chorus]
G# C#
And there are Drums beyond the Mountain There are Drums that you
G#
cannnot hear
C# G# D#7
There are Drums beyond the Mountain and they're getting mighty

Well you may teach me this land's hist'ry but we taught it to you first

And there are Drums beyond the Mountain There are Drums that you
G#

There are Drums beyond the Mountain and they're getting mighty
