Translation
Bilingual
They took the whole cherokee nation
ย
Put us on this reservation
ย
Took away our ways of life
ย
The tomahawk and the bowie knife
ย
Took away our native tongue
ย
And taught their english to our young
ย
And all the beads we made by hand
ย
Are now a days made in japan
ย
Cherokee people cherokee tribe
So proud to live so proud to die
ย
They took the whole indian nation
ย
Locked us on this reservation
ย
Though i wear a shirt and tie
ย
I'm still part redman deep inside
ย
Cherokee people cherokee tribe
So proud to live so proud to die
ย
But maybe someday when they've learned
ย
The cherokee nation will return
Will return
Will return
Will return
Will return
