Can you remember the times That you have held your head high And told all your friends of your Indian claim Proud good lady and proud good man Your great-great grandfather from Indian blood sprang And you feel in your heart for these ones
Oh it's written in books and in song That we've been mistreated and wronged Well over and over I hear the same words From you good lady and you good man Well listen to me if you care where we stand And you feel you're a part of these ones
When a war between nations is lost The loser, we know, pays the cost But even when Germany fell to your hands Consider dear lady, consider dear man You left them their pride and you left them their land And what have you done to these ones
Has a change come about Uncle Sam Or are you still taking our lands A treaty forever George Washington signed He did dear lady, he did dear man And the treaty's being broken by Kinzua Dam And what will you do for these ones
Oh, it's all in the past you can say But it's still going on here today The government now want the Iroquois land That of the Senaca and the Cheyenne It's here and it's now you can help us dear man Now that the buffalo's gone.
