Indian Reservation
They took the whole Cherokee Nation
Put us on this reservation
Took away our ways of life
The tomahawk and the bow and knife
Took away our native tongue
And taught their 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
Though I wear a shirt and tie
I'm still part redman deep inside
Cherokee people, Cherokee tribe
So proud to live, so proud to die
But maybe someday when they learn
Cherokee nation will return
Will return, will return
Will return, will return
Put us on this reservation
Took away our ways of life
The tomahawk and the bow and knife
Took away our native tongue
And taught their 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
Though I wear a shirt and tie
I'm still part redman deep inside
Cherokee people, Cherokee tribe
So proud to live, so proud to die
But maybe someday when they learn
Cherokee nation will return
Will return, will return
Will return, will return
