Biography:
Austin Texas in the 1970s saw the rise of a number of artists and Michael Murphey (as he was known then) is one of them. Carolina In The Pines and What's Forever For were chart hits for Michael, but over the years he's proven another song was the most prophetic - he really did just want to be a Cosmic Cowboy and in the later years he's filled the niche of Cowboy singer. Still his voice is a strong instrument and he's a likable performer.

Geronimo's Cadillac
Michael Martin Murphy
Intro: D,A,Bm,A,G,G,A,D,D
Verse1
D A Bm A
Well they put Geronimo in jail down south
G G A D
Where he couldn't look the gift horse in the mouth
D A Bm A
Sergeant, sergeant, don't you feel
G G A D
There's something wrong with that automobile
D A Bm A
Governor, governor, isn't it strange
G G A D
They didn’t have no cars on the Indian range
D A Bm A
Warden, warden, please listen to me
G G A D
Be brave and set Geronimo free
Chorus
D A Bm A
Whoa boys, take me back
G G A D
I want to ride in Geronimo's Cadillac
D A Bm A
Whoa boys, take me back
G G A D
I want to ride in Geronimo's Cadillac
D
Let me ride, let me ride
Warden, warden, don't you know
Prisoners have no place to go
They took old Geronimo by storm
Ripped off the feathers from his uniform
Jesus tells me I believe its true
The red man is in the sunset too
Took all his land, now they won't give it back
And they sent Geronimo a Cadillac
(Repeat chorus to fade)
