Inspired by the late 1800's buffalo soldiers

The Frontier is a’ calling
Go West, Go West.
Winter is falling
You will be blessed

Young soldiers marched
Ebony skinned, two by two

Sights to be seen -
Ripping rivers,
Ruthless redwoods, never flinching
Firm and fixed buffalo

Parks to build
Sequoias inviting, the land
Harsh, the work punishing
The result rewarding.

The Frontier is a’ calling
Go west curious soldier, Go.
Find your heart,
Find your adventure,
Find your dreams,
Young Buffalo soldier.
