Nathaniel wasn't able to make it past that day
Kicked out of town and died right away
He came to his children and showed them the road
Such a shame now we don't know where to go
Oh what can I do?
Oh, we're not listening now
Susan got lonely since Nathaniel left
Taking all the kids and heading out west
Well she knew as he did that it was all true
She'd come this far, she'd see it through
Oh what can I do?
Oh, we're not listening now
What they saw, what they heard, I cant deny it
What he knew, why he died, I will believe
I will pass it on til he's been vindicated
Didn't die for nothing, at least not to me
Nathaniel wasn't able to make it all the way
Didn't die for nothing, at least not to me
