Tekst piosenki
[Verse 1] Indian Man They took your home They took your land Left you on the run for all of these years Indian man You didn't fit the white man's plan So he herded you off down the Trail of Tears [Chorus 1] But there was a time when the land was free When the Seminole and the Cherokee Stood proud From the Rio Grande to the Midnight Sun The Navajo rode and the Black feet drums beat loud [Verse 2] From the East they came With the Cavalry soldiers and the wagon train With a treaty of peace and rifle in their hands And then the West was won With the broken promise and the Gatling gun And nobody never even tried to understand [Chorus 2] But the Bible got read and the church bells rung And they talk about peace with a forked tongue In vain While Black feet starved and the Cheyenne s froze And the Sioux blood stained the coldest snows In shame [Verse 3] And the tracks went down On the hunting land and the sacred ground Picking up all the drifters along the way And then the trains rolled in With the buffalo skinners and the greedy men And the world got a little bit smaller every day [Chorus 3] But there was a time when the land was free When the Seminole and the Cherokee Stood tall Your head was up but your hopes were down Though your heart was on the ground You stood it all [Outro] And you're a better man than I am Indian Man
