That famous day in history the men of the 7th Cavalry went riding on
And from the rear, a voice was heard
A brave young man with a trembling word rang loud and clear
What the...am I doin' here?

Please, Mr. Custer, I don't wanna go
Hey, Mr. Custer, please don't make me go
Let me tell you, I had a dream last night
About the comin' fight
Somebody yelled "attack, attack"
And there I stood with an arrow in my back

Please, Mr. Custer, I don't wanna go
(Forward ho)
No, no, no, no

Look at them bushes out there
They're moving
I bet there's an Injun behind every one of 'em
Hey, Mr. Custer
You mind if, uh, I be excused for the rest of the afternoon?
Hey, Charlie, duck your head
No, you're a little late on that one, Charlie
Whoo, I bet that smarts

They were sure of victory, the men of the 7th Cavalry, as they rode on
Ah, sing it out, troops
Again from the rear, a voice was heard
That same brave voice with a trembling word rang loud and clear
What am I doin' here?
