Wounded Knee

歌詞

There we were, living on our island in the sun Life was so easy, there was plenty for everyone 'Long come a white man who saw the milk and honey Now we're making due while he's making all the money Oh no, not a Wounded Knee Another wheel stops rolling Oh no, not a Wounded Knee again There we were, living in our village in the trees We were minding our own business, We were doing as we please 'Long came a white man with attitudes and axes Now we're doing overtime and paying lots of taxes (Chorus) The promises and gifts he brings In honor of the songs he sings Are tearing us apart We were pow-wowing to our hearts content We had the great spirit, we didn't need a president 'Long came a white man from the civilised nations Now he ain't having second thoughts But we've got reservations Oh no, not a Wounded Knee Another wheel stops rolling Oh no, not a Wounded Knee Another bell starts tolling Oh no, not a Wounded Knee Another people starts calling Oh no, not a Wounded Knee again
