Indian World Songtext
I've been thinking about my childhood And what your books they taught me If things don't work out like they ought to It wouldn't matter much to me Yes, Look at the land And see all the destruction In a land that once was mine Well, do you go forward? I don't think so We'll have it all back in due time My heart belongs in an Indian world A place that I can call my home I've been livin' in a white man's world Taught nothing of my own We used to soar high as the eagles Far as we could fly Then you came along lookin' for your targets Now the eagles they have died You killed our fathers Raped our mothers Killed our sons and daughters too We break your laws We don't mean to We can't help but what we are My heart belongs in an Indian world A place that I can call my home I've been livin' in a white man's world Taught nothing
