Cherokee Nation
They took the whole Cherokee Nation
And stuck 'em out on a reservation.
Took away our native tongue
And taught their English to our young.
Cherokee people, Cherokee tribe,
So proud to live, so proud to die.
They took the whole Cherokee Nation,
Stuck 'em out on a reservation.
Took away our native tongue
And taught their English to our young.
Cherokee people, Cherokee tribe,
So proud to live, so proud to die.
All the beads we made by hand
Are nowadays made in Japan,
And though I wear a shirt and tie,
I'm still a red man down inside.
Cherokee people, Cherokee tribe,
So proud to live, so proud to die.
Maybe someday when they learn,
The Cherokee Nation will return,
Will return, will return, will return,
Will return, will return!
And stuck 'em out on a reservation.
Took away our native tongue
And taught their English to our young.
Cherokee people, Cherokee tribe,
So proud to live, so proud to die.
They took the whole Cherokee Nation,
Stuck 'em out on a reservation.
Took away our native tongue
And taught their English to our young.
Cherokee people, Cherokee tribe,
So proud to live, so proud to die.
All the beads we made by hand
Are nowadays made in Japan,
And though I wear a shirt and tie,
I'm still a red man down inside.
Cherokee people, Cherokee tribe,
So proud to live, so proud to die.
Maybe someday when they learn,
The Cherokee Nation will return,
Will return, will return, will return,
Will return, will return!
