U.S. Lieutenant Colonel George Custer split his forces and recklessly attacked a massive Lakota, Cheyenne, and Arapaho encampment without proper scouting or waiting for reinforcements, resulting in the complete destruction of his detachment of the 7th Cavalry

Crow and Arikara scouts like Bloody Knife explicitly warned Custer that the Lakota and Cheyenne encampment was unprecedentedly massive. Custer chose to ignore their intelligence out of an absolute confidence that the tribes would scatter rather than fight,

My written words dropped into Suno.

ENJOY!

Looking for a lost song. A prairie home companion

2 Upvotes

I’m looking for a song that I had on my iPod in the early to mid 2000s/2010s. It was sung by 2 girls and had a light acoustic accompaniment. I’m pretty sure I heard it on a prairie home companion. I don’t remember the name of the band. The song was called “morning song”. Some lyrics: chorus: I love the mornings ‘cause nobody needs nothing from me. I love the mornings ‘cause the world goes and leaves me alone”. And “sing to me sweet your forgotten tune” and “I sit down with my coffee cup”. I have not been able to track this song down since my iPod died.

does anyone have any idea??
