Among His Tribe Lyrics

He would step out of the night And light a fire among his tribe Carving from a bear's tooth He used the flesh to feed the youth, he'd salt it down
Sails were made from darkened hide Fish were caught in the lowest tide Thought of war kept him strong He listened for the battle song, in the night
And the old would teach the young To heed the word of the master's tongue A chosen son would take a bride And light the fire among his tribe, and on and on
