When Geronimo finally agreed to surrender to the army, Geronimo asked the general if he would sign the treaty. The general said, "no, Geronimo, the president will.". Geronimo asked "who is the president". The general explained he was the great white father. Geronimo asked where does he live? The general said "in Washington". Geronimo said "then I will NOT sign, only if you sign". The general asked why. Geronimo replied "because all men from Washington are liars!"
Geronimo wasn't shot he was sent to Florida with his people n all Apache army scouts that helped capture him. He was later n a Wild West show n made a lot of money before his death. He is buried in Oaklahoma the Government won't allow his family to bring him back to Arizona. RIP.
His given name was Goyahkla (“The One Who Yawns”), but he earned the name “Geronimo” after distinguishing himself in Apache raids against the Mexicans.
i remember the song when it came on the radio, poor old Geronimo didn't die the way most people think. all he did was defend the indian way of life. this was their country, not mine.
Richard Wood He was incarcerated loosely at Ft. Sill in Oklahoma was allowed much freedom so he rode into the nearest town to sell stuff probably had a few drinks fell off his horse and did not recover.
To men of honer one singing prase to a man of true honer One man of honer we should have been lucky to know a learn from. May his name and others like him Never be lost to the sands of time Bur remember with honer
Nice song, but point of view is dead wrong. Like an Indian Chief said in those days; "The White Man made us many promises. He broke them all; except that he would destroy us....That promise he kept" Read the book "Bury my Heart at Wounded Knee" or listen to the song of Thin Lizzy: "Genocide" (Tekst below)When they try to tell you knowledge is a dangerous thing "it's such a dangerous thing" The people that have it are the people that sin And the people that need it are the people that can never win Let me get you out of here little broken wing There are people round here that are right There are people round here that like to sleep at night There are people round here that go slow There are people round here that don't kindly to the killing of the buffalo When they tear up all the treaties and break up all the plans "they break up all the plans" Did you do your duty and kill on command? Did you know the redman used to roam this land? "he used to roam this land" Now the souls of lost warriors blow across the sands People round here they get it right People round here we like to sleep at night There are people round here that go slow People round here that don't take kindly to the killing of the buffalo, oh no So listen to my story and listen to it well "you better listen well" Listen to the glory of the gory details of the tale I tell Did you know the redman very well? "i used to know him well" Did you know the hunting ground before it became a hell? There are people round here that are right There are people round here that like to sleep at night There are people round here I don't know There are people round here that don't take kindly to the killing of the Buffalo So listen to my story of GENOCIDE How they were hunted and slaughtered till there was no place left to hide Did you know the redman used to hold his head with pride? Till every man, woman and child were destroyed There are people round here that get it right There are people round here that couldn't sleep at night There are people round here I don't know There are people round here that don't take kindly to the killing of the buffalo There are people round here that understand There are people round here that couldn't give a damn There are people round here that go slow There are people round here that don't take too kindly to the killing of the Buffalo (
These lyrics are a great example of ‘revisionist history’. That being said, I prefer the more practical perspective - “History is written by the winners.”
The greatest Native American to ever live...Sitting Bull was cool, but Geronimo defied the Government in a way that just made that look mild by comparison.
I love this song. But Geronimo was not a bandit or a bad guy. he was a hero and fought against an invading hoard. But i'm happy the white man feared him. That's what you get for the trail of tears
Geronimo was only 5' 4" tall. And when a young trooper said, "I thought he'd be bigger." An old frontier scout replied, "He was big enough."
I know I'm way late, but do you have a source for that? I've heard 5'11.
@@80ki68 without sources we can determine that Geronimo was a manlet

Smart man
I mean he's not wrong
The native Americans are laughing at us in their graves
This sounds like a made up story, made up after the fact to please a certain narrative.
Washington is full of lairers
Geronimo was my great grandfather and Cochise was my Great great grandfather
Grandson of two great chiefs be proud of your heritage
Respect great figter.Dont forget your grand grand grand father.That say the mad asier to you.
A great singer and fantastic actor. Greatly missed. Proud he is Canadian
Like Neil Young and Leonard Cohen
This doesn't sound like singing. more like a narrative set to music.
There are two actors in the world that can tell you that 2×2=7 and you'll believe it's true.
The other one is Morgan Freeman.
What a voice. Geronimooooo🎶

Beautiful Geronimo
I've never heard this one before. The only thing I remember was "Ringo".
ringoooooo
lorne was awesome
Thank You so much for posting this. So refreshing in contrast to what they are calling Music today.
Just like Tennessee Ernie, so captivating!!!!!!

Richard Woods Wrong its my country not yours.
My family came here in 1653. fuck off.
My family has been here over 10,000 years, you are immigrants here ! There were no white people here then !
Cuddles Sertell Fuck off with that, Native civilization had a city larger than London.
Duas lendas
I do like this and give me more!!!!
Damn, I can almost see the vast scenery and obligatory credit sequences this conjures up
Great voice
My God Lorne Green.now i can hear him and match it
Ringo.like thar the BEST.
Geronimo fought a righteous battle against the intruders. We were all wounded at wounded knee (years later)
Yeah, people tend to overlook the fact that Mexico and the U.S financed scalp hunters.
Geronimo was a badass
To men of honer one singing prase to a man of true honer
One man of honer we should have been lucky to know a learn from.
May his name and others like him
Never be lost to the sands of time
Bur remember with honer
Reminds me of " Big Bad John "
I thought so.
Stark ...kannte ich noch nicht +++
Geronimo was never executed!
LONG LIVE GERONIMO!
i'm dead
Thanks: A treat.
Noch ein Titel für Zwischendurch:
Lorne Greene - Geronimo
Ihr erinnert Euch? Lorne Greene in Bonanza!
Viel Spass!
Und Commander Adama in _Battlestar Galactica_!
Super! Erst heute gesehen!
Me molesta que deshabiliten los comentarios. Es grato oír a este artista
Geronimo and Pancho Villa have something in common they both had the U S Army after them were talking thousands. Pershing n Mies n and Cook.
Their skulls were also stolen and hidden away in the Skull and Bones haven

Nice song, but point of view is dead wrong. Like an Indian Chief said in those days; "The White Man made us many promises. He broke them all; except that he would destroy us....That promise he kept" Read the book "Bury my Heart at Wounded Knee" or listen to the song of Thin Lizzy: "Genocide" (Tekst below)When they try to tell you knowledge is a dangerous thing
"it's such a dangerous thing"
The people that have it are the people that sin
And the people that need it are the people that can never win
Let me get you out of here little broken wing
There are people round here that are right
There are people round here that like to sleep at night
There are people round here that go slow
There are people round here that don't kindly to the killing of the buffalo
When they tear up all the treaties and break up all the plans
"they break up all the plans"
Did you do your duty and kill on command?
Did you know the redman used to roam this land?
"he used to roam this land"
Now the souls of lost warriors blow across the sands
People round here they get it right
People round here we like to sleep at night
There are people round here that go slow
People round here that don't take kindly to the killing of the buffalo, oh no
So listen to my story and listen to it well
"you better listen well"
Listen to the glory of the gory details of the tale I tell
Did you know the redman very well?
"i used to know him well"
Did you know the hunting ground before it became a hell?
There are people round here that are right
There are people round here that like to sleep at night
There are people round here I don't know
There are people round here that don't take kindly to the killing of the Buffalo
So listen to my story of GENOCIDE
How they were hunted and slaughtered till there was no place left to hide
Did you know the redman used to hold his head with pride?
Till every man, woman and child were destroyed
There are people round here that get it right
There are people round here that couldn't sleep at night
There are people round here I don't know
There are people round here that don't take kindly to the killing of the buffalo
There are people round here that understand
There are people round here that couldn't give a damn
There are people round here that go slow
There are people round here that don't take too kindly to the killing of the Buffalo (

ME ENCANTA:)))

So was the bible
Hieno kappale Beniltä.
geronimo!!!
I'm white & part Cherokee we all have been lied too!!! about a lot !!
The greatest Native American to ever live...Sitting Bull was cool, but Geronimo defied the Government in a way that just made that look mild by comparison.
Same tune as Ringo.
Dad burn it, Paw.
Hoss!😂.
I love this song. But Geronimo was not a bandit or a bad guy. he was a hero and fought against an invading hoard.
But i'm happy the white man feared him. That's what you get for the trail of tears
and for that fucking matter all sites have the wrong lyrics
why are all the lyrics to this song wrong ?
Sayang betul pakcik kordi dekat beliau ye
I didn't know "Native American" was one language.
idiot
