Cherokee nation de Paul Revere & The Raiders

Cherokee reservation
don fardon
They took the whole cherokee nation
and put us on this reservation
they took away our ways of life
the tomahawk and the bow and knife
They took away our native tongue
and taught their Inglés-English to our young
and all the beads we made by hand
are nowadays made in japan
Cherokee people
cherokee tribe
so proud to live
so proud to die
They took the whole indian nation
locked us on this reservation
and though i wear a shirt and tie
i still part redman deep inside
Cherokee people
cherokee tribe
so proud to live
so proud to die
And some day when they've learned
cherokee indian will return
will return will return
will return will return
