Once upon a dusty reservation somewhere in the land of Sittin' Bull
Johnny Lobo played with fire and dreamed of open spaces
Locked inside a heaven gone to hell
All the dreams were gone but not forgotten murdered like the holy buffalo
But Johnny Lobo knew the rules and grew into a warrior
Fightin' for his people and his soul
Oh Johnny Lobo oh Johnny Lobo
Loaded down with lessons that he carried home from VietNam to Wounded Knee
Johnny Lobo burned a flag he knew had been dishonored
Paid the price for thinking he was free
Someone set his house on fire burned it to the ground
With his wife and children locked inside
Later when the bitter tears were falling to the ashes
Something good in Johnny Lobo died
Oh Johnny Lobo oh Johnny Lobo
[ harmonica ]
In a darkened corner of a tavern burning down old memories again
Johnny Lobo stares into the smoke and dream of clouds
Runnin' like wild horses with the wind
Holy Phoenix rising from the ashes into the circle of the sun
Johnny Lobo's warrior heart was burnished in the embers and the battle's just begun
Oh Johnny Lobo oh Johnny Lobo
The lyrics JOHNNY LOBO of KRIS KRISTOFFERSON is also present in the album A moment of forever (1995)
Kris Kristofferson (nato Christopher Kristofferson il 22 giugno 1936) è un cantautore, musicista e attore statunitense di origine svedese. Considerato uno dei pilastri della musica country americana, ha influenzato generazioni di artisti con le sue canzoni introspettive e poetiche che esplorano temi come la vita rurale, l'amore, la perdita e la lotta sociale. Dopo una carriera militare e un breve periodo di studio alla Oxford University, Kristofferson si trasferì a Nashville nel 1966 per dedicarsi alla musica. Inizialmente lavorò come scrittore per altri artisti prima di emergere con il suo album d'esordio "Kristofferson" (1970). Il suo successo arrivò con brani come "Me and Bobby McGee", interpretato da Janis Joplin, e "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down", diventato un classico del country. Kristofferson ha collaborato con artisti di fama mondiale come Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings e Willie Nelson, contribuendo a definire il movimento outlaw country degli anni '70. Oltre alla musica, ha recitato in numerosi film, tra cui "Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid" (1973) e "Blade Runner" (1982). Nel corso della sua carriera, Kristofferson ha vinto numerosi premi, tra cui il Grammy Award per la migliore canzone country nel 1970. Le sue canzoni continuano ad essere amate e interpretate da artisti di diverse generazioni.
