Too many broken promises Too many trail of tears Too many times you were left cold For oh so many years Too many times you walked away And was made to feel ashamed And though you only tried to give You were often blamed How can this world be so dark So unfair and so untrue How did the cards of life Fold right on top of you God in heaven, hear my prayer If you are still above Send the children hopes and dreams And lots and lots of love For this I only ask of you to conquer all their fears And let them soar like eagles across the trail of tears

Many I feel do not understand all that the Native Americans have ever been put through. Even today, they are starving and deeply impoverished. I wish more people would stand up for them.

[@chandleralex1950]

There r people that suffer every were its not just the native americans but i agree people need to stand up for what they beleave in but so do the people that soffer they need to stsnd up to i think all people knows a litte about suffing and its a part of life but God put people here to watch over each other help each other up if one falls down

This song isn't simply about the suffering of the Cherokee. This is a poem describing the painful issue of intolerance and human displacement and humiliation. It is very applicable to our time period.

Billy Ray, you should rerelease this. The sound (mandolin, beat, down home feel) seems pretty popular now. People who didn't get to hear it back then could hear and enjoy it now. Maybe just accentuate the beat more, as that seems like a popular thing to do now, too. This maybe my favorite of all your songs. 👍

He is part Cherokee, as a long time fan of his I assure you, he speaks out for native Americans alot. I met him, he's a good man. One of his best songs. he wrote this himself. Some people should understand there is no guideline as to what a Cherokee looks like. I am half Navajo and 1/4 Cherokee. Over the years my looks have changed. this is no different. People dog on this man and don't even have one clue as to how much raw talent he has. As a writer he's prolific most of his songs he's written or co written, today it say's alot... not to mention I ain't heard him degrade women and tell them to shake it for 'em.... no offence but if you can't read the whole book before judging then don't speak.

[@rebirth70]

Being that my mother was a native american, it is something that can be considered relatable. I myself have never suffered, but makes me appreciate what I have currently, after previous treatment of native americans. Maybe other minorities should learn from the past and be glad it is not the same. Instead of using it against other for their own failures. Just sharing a message that was shared with me. Eternity and Salvation matter for that eternity Read and sincerely believe 1 corinthians 15 1-4; GOspel of Grace, for true salvation.

[@lscdancer]

This song, as I recall, never got air play on the radio, eventhough it won Video of the Year Award. And yes, it does commemorate the Trail of Tears. Billy Ray is Cherokee. He did this to honor his ancestors, as I heard in an interview. I was quite touched. I don't think he takes himself too overly seriously, so why all the criticism. He's just a guy making a living. If you don't like him, don't listen. I appreciate this song. It's the perfect rebuttal to "Indian Outlaw" by Tim McGraw.

[@Max_Griswald]

It got plenty of air play when I was growing up. Not as much as some songs, but a few times a day. It's not like it is an unknown song.

[@nancyinboise2160]

Always loved this song!!!! His best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@morganeoghmanann9792]

Back when Billy Ray first released this song, he made mention in several interviews that this song was written partly to honor his Cherokee ancestry (among Irish and several others), of which he is very proud. He also showed off a tipi he had erected behind his Tennessee mansion which his wife, in the interview, jokingly revealed that he spent more time in than the house. He also revealed that his Cherokee name is "Hawk Flying". He immediately seemed flustered and said that he wasn't sure it was 'allowed' to reveal your Native name to others.

[@masongray5648]

Though his intentions may have been good, he is not a cherokee nor is he descended from our people. Cherokees are a well documented tribes with records going back to the 1600s. Very accurate rolls where taken of Cherokee populations in the early 1900s as well from which we base our citizenship. The best genealogists among our tribe have extensively researched the ancestry of Billy ray Cyrus and his ancestors where never located in Cherokee nation until after our forced removal.
