Ke Sakihitin Awasis

[Intro]
They're still looking to his eyes
Soon you're singing lullabies
Hey-ha ah ha oh
Hey-ha ah ha oh

[Verse 1]
He's not like a stranger, he's more like a vision you'd seen
The kind of a face that you'd see on the edge of a dream
He was beaded and feathered from his head to his moccasin'd feet
And now you're singing

[Chorus]
Ke sakihitin awasis
Ke sakihitin awasis
Hey hey hey hey-ha oh
Hey hey hey ha-ha oh
Hey-ha ah ha oh
Hey-ha ah ha oh

[Verse 2]
He reminds you of a legend that you had known as a child
He knew it too, it was about Earth and about Sun and about Sky
Oh it was about Wolf and Coyote and Eagle and Kitchimanitou
And Wakontanka

[Chorus]
Ke sakihitin awasis
Ke sakihitin awasis
Hey hey hey hey-ha oh
Hey hey hey ha-ha oh
Hey-ha hey ah ha oh
Hey-ha hey ah ha oh

[Verse 3]
On some reservation, your purification's begun
It's the fifth generation, the young and the old are as one
Singing come back to the sweetgrass
Come back to the pipe and the drum
And be your future

[Chorus]
Ke sakihitin awasis
Ke sakihitin awasis
Hey hey hey hey-ha oh
Hey hey hey ha-ha oh
Hey-ha hey ah ha oh
Hey-ha hey ah ha oh

Ke sakihitin awasis
Ke sakihitin awasis
Hey hey hey hey-ha oh
Hey hey hey ha-ha oh
Hey-ha hey ah ha oh
Hey-ha hey ah ha oh
