Buffy Sainte-Marie - Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee Lyrics

Send "Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee" ringtone to your cell

Indian legislation's on the desk of a do-right congressman

Now he don't know much about the issue

So he picks up the phone

And he asks advice of the senator out in indian country

A darling of the energy companies

Who are ripping off what?s left of the reservations

I learned a safety rule i don?t know who to thank

Don't stand between the reservation and the corporate bank

They'll send in federal tanks it isn?t nice but it?s reality

Bury my heart at wounded knee deep in the earth

Cover me with pretty lies

Bury my heart at wounded knee

They got these energy companies who want the land

And they?ve got churches by the dozen who want to guide our hands

And sign mother earth over to pollution war and greed

Bury my heart at wounded knee deep in the earth

Cover me with pretty lies

Bury my heart at wounded knee

We got the federal marshals we got the covert spies

We get the liars by the fire and we got the fbi's

They lie in court and get nailed and still peltier goes off to jail

Bury my heart at wounded knee an aid to the reservation

Bury my heart at wounded knee transfered in sequence

Bury my heart at wounded knee to murder an intimidation

Bury my heart at wounded knee

My girlfriend annie mae talked about uranium

Her head was filled with bullets and her body dumped

The fbi cut off her hands and told us she?d died of exposure

Bury my heart at wounded knee deep in the earth

Cover me with pretty lies

Bury my heart at wounded knee bury my heart at wounded knee

Bury my heart at wounded knee bury my heart at wounded knee

Bury my heart at wounded knee

We had the goldrush wars why didn?t we learn to crawl?

And now our history gets written in a liar?s scrawl

They tell ya ?hey honey you can still be an indian

D-d-down at the y on saturday nights?

Bury my heart at wounded knee deep in the earth

Cover me with pretty lies

Bury my heart at wounded knee

Bury my heart at wounded knee deep in the earth

Cover me with pretty lies

Bury my heart at wounded knee

Bury my heart at wounded knee
