[00:32.793]So you want to be an Indian an original American
[00:40.227]Ride a horse wild and free put war paint on your skin
[00:46.791]You think my life's a story like a movie on TV
[00:53.793]But if you want a taste of Hell on earth
[00:57.044]Come hang around with me
[01:01.105]So you want to be an Indian out where the buffalo roam
[01:08.355]A peaceful place on planet earth that you can call your home
[01:14.995]Where streams of crystal waters once flowed with red man's pride
[01:22.060]But they've disappeared like forgotten dreams
[01:25.182]That have gone away and died
[01:51.934]So you want to be an Indian living on the land
[01:58.932]That was stolen from our grandpa by dear old Uncle Sam
[02:05.434]Who sent soldier after soldier to tell us what was right
[02:12.809]But politicians nor their armies can turn an Indian white
[02:33.937]So you want to be an Indian can you say"poverty"
[02:40.811]If the great white hope in Washington would send what belongs to me
[02:47.431]I'd have blankets in the winter
[02:50.497]I wouldn't have to be so cold
[02:54.874]And have something to eat besides government cheese
[02:57.936]To feed my hungry soul
[03:01.810]So you want to be an Indian a noble honored chief
[03:09.308]And try to walk a holy road in dignity and peace
[03:15.748]Hold the vision of America in the palm of your hand
[03:23.434]And watch the free world pass you by
[03:25.812]And not give one single damn
