Lyrics

They took the whole Cherokee nation
 ♪
 Put us on this reservation
 ♪
 Took away our ways of life
 
 The tomahawk and the bow and knife
 ♪
 Took away our native tongue
 ♪
 And taught their English to our young
 ♪
 And all the beads we made by hand
 
 Are nowadays made in Japan
 ♪
 Cherokee people
 Cherokee tribe
 So proud to live
 So proud to die
 ♪
 They took the whole Indian nation
 ♪
 Locked us on this reservation
 ♪
 Though I wear a shirt and tie
 I'm still part red man deep inside
 ♪
 Cherokee people
 Cherokee tribe
 So proud to live
 So proud to die
 ♪
 But maybe someday, when they've learnt
 
 The Cherokee nation will return
 Will return, will return
 Will return, will return
