Bury my heart at wounded knee

(chorus)
When the river meets the mountain
And the birds swim in the sea
Only then can you justify
Takin' a man's liberty.

When we lived on the prairie
Huntin' buffalo
Happy in the sunshine
Contented in the snow
We cherished our rivers
We nourished our lands
Our children grew in freedom
__?__ man and woman strong (woman strong)

Then came the white man
Searchin' for gold
We opened our arms
To you, welcomed young and old (young and old)

And the you built your railways
And the you came in scores
Then you came in thousands
And then a million more (a million more)

All this time you told us
We should live as one
And then you brought your armies
To throw us out with guns (out with guns)

You are the savage
We are the wise
We told the truth, man
You told the lies (told the lies)

You slaughtered our children
You'd murder your own
Your greed for yellow metal
Drove us from our homes (from our homes)

(chorus)

Takin' away all our lives
You've claimed our liberty.
