MEN
In sixteen hundred seven
We sail the open sea
For glory, God, and gold
And The Virgina Company
For the New World is like heaven
And we'll all be rich and free
Or so we have been told
By The Virginia Company
So we have been told
By The Virginia Company
For glory, God, and gold
And The Virgina Company
On the beaches of Virginny
There's diamonds like debris
There's silver rivers flow
And gold you pick right off a tree
With a nugget for my Winnie
And another one for me
And all the rest'll go
To The Virginia Company
It's glory, God, and gold
And The Virgina Company

NATIVE AMERICANS
Hega hega ya-hi-he hega
Ya-hi-he-ne-he hega
Hega hega ya-hi-he hega
Ya-hi-he-ne-he hega
Steady as the beating drum
Singing to the cedar flute
Seasons go and seasons come
Bring the corn and bear the fruit
By the waters sweet and clean
Where the mighty sturgeon lives
Plant the squash and reap the bean
All the earth our mother gives
O Great Spirit, hear our song
Help us keep the ancient ways
Keep the sacred fire strong
Walk in balance all our days
Seasons go and seasons come
Steady as the beating drum
Plum to seed to bud to plum
(Hega hega ya-hi-he hega)
Steady as the beating drum
Hega hega ya-hi-he hega
Ya-hi-he-ne-he hega
Hega hega ya-hi-he hega
Ya-hi-he-ne-he hega

POCAHONTAS
You think I'm an ignorant savage
And you've been so many places
I guess it must be so
But still I cannot see
If the savage one is me
How can there be so much that you don't know?
You don't know...
You think you own whatever land you land on
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know ev'ry rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew you never knew
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
Come taste the sun-sween berries of the earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once, never wonder what they're worth
The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
The heron and the otter are my friends
And we are all connected to each other
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends
How high does the sycamore grow?
If you cut it down, then you'll never know
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
For whether we are white or copper-skinned
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountain
Need to pain with all the colors of the wind
You can own the earth and still
All you'll own is earth until
You can paint with all the colors of the wind

RATCLIFFE
What can you expect
From filthy little heathens?
Their whole disgusting race is like a curse
Their skin's a hellish red
They're only good when dead
They're vermin, as I said
And worse
ENGLISH SETTLERS
They're savages! Savages!
RATCLIFFE
Barely even human
ENGLISH SETTLERS
Savages! Savages!
RATCLIFFE
Drive them from our shore!
They're not like you and me
Which means they must be evil
We must sound the drums of war!
ENGLISH SETTLERS
They're savages! Savages!
Dirty redskin devils!
Now we sound the drums of war!
POWHATAN
This is what we feared
The paleface is a demon
The only thing they feel at all is greed
KEKATA
Beneath that milky hide
There's emptiness inside
NATIVE AMERICANS
I wonder if they even bleed
They're savages! Savages!
Barely even human
Savages! Savages!
POWHATAN
Killers at the core
KEKATA
They're different from us
Which means they can't be trusted
POWHATAN
We must sound the drums of war
NATIVE AMERICANS
They're savages! Savages!
First we deal with this one
ALL
Then we sound the drums of war
ENGLISH SETTLERS
Savages! Savages!
BEN
Let's go kill a few, men!
NATIVE AMERICANS
Savages! Savages!
RATCLIFFE
Now it's up to you, men!
ALL
Savages! Savages!
Barely even human
Now we sound the drums of war!

MEN
We'll kill ourselves an injun

Or Maybe two or three

We're stalwart men and bold

As the river cuts his path
Though the river's proud and strong
He will choose the smoothest course
That's why rivers live so long
They're steady . . .
As the steady beating drum

POCAHONTAS
What I love most about rivers is:
You can't step in the same river twice
The water's always changing, always flowing
But people, I guess, can't live like that
We all must pay a price
To be safe, we lose our chance of ever knowing
What's around the riverbend
Waiting just around the riverbend
I look once more
Just around the riverbend
Beyond the shore
Where the gulls fly free
Don't know what for
What I dream the day might send
Just around the riverbend
For me
Coming for me
I feel it there beyond those trees
Or right behind these waterfalls
Can I ignore that sound of distant drumming
For a handsome sturdy husband
Who builds handsome sturdy walls
And never dreams that something might be coming?
Just around the riverbend
Just around the riverbend
I look once more
Just around the riverbend
Beyond the shore
Somewhere past the sea
Don't know what for...
Why do all my dreams extend
Just around the riverbend?
Just around the riverbend...
Should I choose the smoothest course
Steady as the beating drum?
Should I marry Kocoum?
Is all my dreaming at an end?
Or do you still wait for me, Dream Giver
Just around the riverbend?

RATCLIFFE
The gold of Cortés
The jewels of Pizarro
Will seem like mere trinkets
By this time tomorrow
The gold we find here
Will dwarf them by far
Oh, with all ya got in ya, boys
Dig up Virginia, boys
Mine, boys, mine ev'ry mountain
And dig, boys, dig 'til ya drop
Grab a pick, boys
Quick, boys
Shove in a shovel
Uncover those lovely
Pebbles that sparkle and shine
It's gold and it's mine, mine, mine...
ENGLISH SETTLERS
Dig and dig and dig and diggety...
Dig and dig and dig and diggety...
WIGGINS
Hey nonny nonny
Ho nonny noony
RATCLIFFE
Oh, how I love it!
Riches for cheap!
WIGGINS
There'll be heaps of it...
RATCLIFFE
And I'll be on top of the heap!
My rivals back home
It's not that I'm bitter
But think how they'll squirm
When they see how I glitter!
The ladies at court
Will be all a-twitter
The king will reward me
He'll knight me ... no, lord me!
It's mine, mine, mine
For the taking
It's mine, boys
Mine me that gold!
With those nuggets dug...
It's glory they'll gimme
My dear friend, King Jimmy
Will probably build me a shrine
When all of the gold is mine
ENGLISH SETTLERS
Dig and dig and dig and diggety
Dig and dig and dig and diggety-dig!
SMITH
All of my life, I have searched for a land
Like this one
A wilder, more challenging country
I couldn't design
Hundreds of dangers await
And I don't plan to miss one
In a land I can claim
A land I can tame
The greatest adventure is mine!
RATCLIFFE AND ENGLISH SETTLERS
Keep on working, lads
Mine
Don't be shirking, lads
Find a mother lode
Mine, boys, mine
Then find another load!
Mine me that gold
Dig! Dig! and diggety
Beautiful gold
Dig! Dig! for that gold
ALL
Make this island
My land!
RATCLIFFE
Make the mounds big, boys
I'd help you to dig, boys
But I've got this crick in me spine
SMITH
This land we behold...
RATCLIFFE
This beauty untold...
SMITH
A man can be bold!
It all can be sold!
RATCLIFFE AND ENGLISH SETTLERS
And the gold
So go for the gold
Is...
We know which is here
Mine!
All the riches here
Mine!
From this minute
Mine!
This land and what's in
it is
Mine!
Mine!
Dig and dig and diggety-dig!
Hey nonny nonny nonny it's mine!

POCAHONTAS
Is there nothing I can do?
Will this really be the end?
Is it only death that waits
Just around the riverbend?
RATCLIFFE
This will be the day...
(Let's go men!)
POWHATAN
This will be the morning...
(Bring out the prisoner)
ENGLISH SETTLERS AND NATIVE AMERICANS
We will see them dying in the dust
POCAHONTAS
I don't know what I can do
Still I know I've got to try
ENGLISH SETTLERS
Now we make 'em pay
POCAHONTAS
Eagle, help my feet to fly
NATIVE AMERICANS
Now without a warning
POCAHONTAS
Mountain, help my heart be great
ENGLISH SETTLERS AND NATIVE AMERICANS
Now we leave 'em blood and
bone and rust
POCAHONTAS
Spirits of the earth and sky...
ENGLISH SETTLERS AND NATIVE AMERICANS
It's them or us
POCAHONTAS
Please don't let it be too late...
ENGLISH SETTLERS AND NATIVE AMERICANS
They're just a bunch of
Filthy, stinking
ENGLISH SETTLERS
Savages!
NATIVE AMERICANS
Savages!
ENGLISH SETTLERS
Demons!
NATIVE AMERICANS
Devils!
RATCLIFFE
Kill them!
NATIVE AMERICANS
Savages!
ENGLISH SETTLERS
Savages!
RATCLIFFE
What are we waiting for?
ALL
Destroy their evil race
Until there's not a trace left
POCAHONTAS
How loud are the drums of war
ENGLISH SETTLERS AND NATIVE AMERICANS
We will the drums of war
(Savages! Savages!)
Now, we sound the drums of war
(Savages! Savages!)
RATCLIFFE
Now we see what comes
Of trying to be chums
NATIVE AMERICANS
Now we sound the drums ... of ... war!
ENGLISH SETTLERS
Of course it means the drums ... of ... war!
POCAHONTAS
Is the death of all I love
Carried in the drumming of war?
