Song title:
Phil Ochs - Ballad Of Alferd Packer
Edit By:
216.73.216.108
In the state of Colorado In the year of seventy-four They crossed the San Juan Mountains Growing hungry to the core. Their guide was Alferd Packer And they trusted him too long: For his character was weak And his appetite was strong. They called him a murderer, a cannibal, a thief; It just doesn't pay to eat anything but Government-inspected beef. Along the Gunnison River An Indian camp they spied. An Indian chief approached them, To stop them he did try. He warned them of the danger In the snow that lay around, But the danger was in Packer, For his hunger knew now bound. They called him a murderer, a cannibal, a thief; It just doesn't pay to eat anything but Government-inspected beef. Two cold months went slowly by; Packer came back alone.
