Hoo-hoo-hoo
The great American Indians, free upon the open plain
Had a life so complete
Until the European came
A hoopin’ and a hollerin
Rdin’ on a pony’s back, hoo hoo hoo, better than a Cadillac
With the Squaw and little papoose
Without no railroad tracks, wow!
The great American Indian, fishin’ in the Everglades
Was a part of all around
And took care of all that was made
Paddlin’ his canoe, through reeds of grass so tall
He was the Big Alligator
But left enough for all, yeah
The great Amrican Indian, dwellin’ in the Canyon Grand
Had a life so specialized
Tuned to wind and rain and sand
No attempt to control, what cannot be tamed
Hе knew Earth as a Mother
And would not not rape hеr for gain, ooh ooh ooh
They knew Earth as their Mother
And would not not rape her for gain, wow hoo hoo
The great American Indian, saw as only eagles saw
Swam like fish, ran like lightning
Wore the sign of the big bear claw
Each job to its season
Down valley, down valley, path or trail, oh yeah
And the racoon knew the reason
The corn never failed, ooh ooh
The great American Indian, considered Sun and Moon and Fire
All is somethin’ delicate
To someone grateful to inspire
Nothin’ was left out
Nothin’ was thrown away
And every step was taken, in the Great Spirit’s way
The great American Indian, saw as only eagles saw
Swam like fish, ran like lightning
Wore the sign of the big bear claw
A hoopin’ and a hollerin’, hoo hoo hoo hoo
Ridin’ on a pony’s, pony’s back, better than a Cadillac
With the Squaw and little papoose
Without no railroad tracks, wow hoo hoo!
The great American Indians, free upon the open plain
Had a life so complete
Until the European came
A hoopin’ and a hollerin
Rdin’ on a pony’s back, hoo hoo hoo, better than a Cadillac
With the Squaw and little papoose
Without no railroad tracks, wow!
