Now That The Buffalo's Gone

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 songs
 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 wants the Iroquois land
 That of the Seneca and the Cheyenne
 It's here and it's now, you must help us, dear man
 Now that the buffalo's gone
