Very simple. It portrays in the beginning, the white men came from Europle (across the sea) and seattled on the land previously lived on by the native americans (indians). Then it goes on to tell about their territory expansion and how when the natives finally revolted against them, a war broke out. THE NATIVES NEVER FOUGHT COWBOYS. They fought with the American army, cowboys were just settlers who took the land after the natives were pushed out by the army.

This song is about the colonization of the Wild West as the US Calvary slaughtered the Plains Indians. The Plains Indians are the most famous (Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull) because they were the last to be defeated and placed onto reservations. Most European Nations are smitten with tribes like the Lakota . . . . The CHerokee are the largest Nation - not the Cree (who are actually the Iyiniwok) Indians did fight and kill cowboys and cowboys did fight and kill the indians!! The cowboys were some of the first to come across the Great Plains (before the whites starting settling the plains) as they herded cattle from Texas and Mexico.
