Spirit Of The Plains

---

 From eons past he ruled the land
​   From an undisputed throne
     Made of natures finest
       Of grass and earth and stone

 The prairie was his kingdom
  Seemed to stretch without end
     His anthem softly playing
       On the ceaseless wind

Then a new sound was heard across the  kingdom
​    It was the wind of change
      A sound never heard before
         A sound so harsh and strange

Now his kingdom id divided
  As man staked off his claim
​    There's a new king on the prairie
       And progress is his name

 Though his kingdom is divided
    His spirit still remains
       You can hear it if you listen
          In the wind upon the plains

You can hear it if you listen
       He's the "Spirit of the Plains"
