Are you experienced

In kurosawa cinemascope the armies of the north will rise against us
Our pastures razed to ashes and smoke the warlord's banner fills the sky
I don't know how we're going to cope with all these changes to our bitter fortune
But I would rather ride with a guy who's been across the great river

Are you experienced
Have you torn another world apart
Are you experienced
Have you done a thing so bad the world will never forget

I used to dream in yellow and gold but now the dream is always one of sadness
Throughout the plains and valleys of home the great horse culture fades away
I don't know how we're going to win back the precious land we promised to our children
But I would rather ride with a guy who's been across the great river

Experience will make you stronger
Experience may take a while
Experience may take a little longer
Experience may take a while
