Crystal bracelets a set of which there were three
Adorning the wrist of a classic beauty
and she never took them off for you see
They held special powers to connect and unite
not to be shared until the time was right
Then she visited Joseph at his holy grave site
She shared a smoke and offered a prayer
For half an hour she cried as I watched over there
She made him a figure of stone with such care
And placed around it one bracelet from three
connecting her to him for all eternity
I took her by hand helped her from her knee
We walked together arm in arm hand in hand
until we had nearly left Joseph's land
And noticed there's not many left of his band
One day it came time for me to take leave
of this Indian Princess and the power I believe
that those crystal bracelets could weave
I drove up the road and 'twas there that I found
bracelet number three hanging around
just where she left it for me to be bound
The triad completed and joined for all times
united in hearts and sharing like minds
for peace for all men of all races and kinds
Three Crystal bracelets which once were a set
until that day when the three of us met
there at his grave site this I'll never forget
Number two for Chief Joseph She wears Number one
I'll wear Number three 'til my days are done
Crystal bracelets a set join us three into one
