| 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'sThey 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 | |
| IndianD-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 | |
