[Verse 1]
Can you remember the times
That you have held your head high
Told all your friends of your Indian claim
Proud good lady and proud good man
Some great great grandfather from Indian blood sprang
And you feel in your heart for these ones
[Chorus 1]
Oh, it's written in books and in songs
That we've been mistreated and wronged
Over and over I hear those same words
From you, good lady, and you, good man
But listen to me, if you care where we stand
And you feel you're part of these ones
[Verse 2]
When a war between nations is fought
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 lands
And what have you done to these ones?
[Chorus 2]
Has a change come about, my dear man
Or are you still taking our lands
A treaty forever your senators sign
They do, dear lady, they do, dear man
And the treaties are broken again and again
And what will you do for these ones?
[Verse 3]
"Oh, it's all in the past," they will say
But it's still going on here today
The governments now want the Lakota lands
That of the Inuit and the Cheyenne
It's here and it's now! You can help us, dear man
