Golden Feather
(Robbie Robertson)

I think I’ll go on back to Shenandoah
She said that she’d meet me by the fork in the road
I jump start my one-eyed Ford I’m heading for the pow-wow
I follow the red path that leads to you
I gave my love a golden feather
I gave my love a heart of stone
When you find a golden feather it means you’ll never lose your way back home Should I paint my face, Should I pierce my skin
Does this make me a pagan sweating out my sins
Ya ate the sacred mushroom and waded in the water
Howling like coyotes at the naked moon
I gave my love a golden feather
I gave my love a heart of stone
When you find a golden feather it means you’ll never lose your way back home In the autumn night when there’s no wind blowin’
I could hear the stars falling in the dark
When you find out what’s worth keeping
With a breath of kindness blow the rest away
I gave my love a golden feather
I gave my love a heart of stone
When you find a golden feather it means you’ll never lose your way back home Ohh I gave my love a golden feather, I gave my love a heart of stone

When you find a golden feather it means you’ll never lose your way back home Golden Feather, Golden Feather
