LEGEND OF ALCATRAZ
Tom Fogerty


In the days of 1890 lived an Indian boy, I'm told 
He sat upon the rock to prophecy 
& he spoke of golden bridges 
& a black cloud up above 
& the birds in the water in a circle from the sky 

CHORUS: 
& he went down to the valley 
& he went down through the trees 
& he went down to the people 
Telling everyone he'd meet 
But no would would believe him 
No one would believe him 

In the year of 1970 lived an Indian boy, I'm told 
He sat upon the rock to criticize 
& he saw the golden bridge 
& the black cloud up above 
& the birds in the water in a circle from the sky 

(chorus) 

No one would believe him 
No one would believe him 
Why don't you tell me who is the winner 
Tell me who is the winner 
...& fade
