Golden Feather Robbie Robertson I think I'm going back to Shenandoah She said that she'd meet me by the fork in the road I jump start my old Ford I'm heading for the pow-wow Follow red path that leads to you I gave my love a golden feather I gave my love a heart of stone And 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 We 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 And 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 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 And when you find a golden feather It means you'll never lose your way back home
