Hold on pride and tradition
Original American
Hold on pride and tradition
Territory, it's just the body of the nation
Cry for the Indians
Cry for the Indians
Cry for the Indians
Forced out, brave and mighty
We're dissin' them
Die for the Indians
Stolen land they can't fight it
'Cause a flag of many colors, is what this land is all about
We're dissin' them
How much their lives are really missin'
Turned into second class citizen
We're dissin' them
We all see black and white
Respect is something that you earn
Forced out, brave and mighty
Some folks have none of this
Cry, cry, cry for the Indians
We're dissin' them
Peace is what we strive to have
Cry for the Indians
On reservations
How much their lives are really missin'
Stolen land they can't fight it
The people that inhabit it, make its configuration
Love the land and fellow man
On reservations
Even though they know
How much their lives are really missin'
Stolen land they can't fight it
Apathy can never solve
Even though they know
Prejudice, something we all can do without
A hopeless situation
No one ever gets involved
A hopeless situation
A hopeless situation
Forced out, brave and mighty
A hopeless situation
On reservations
Die for the Indians
Our Indian brothers' getting burned
Hold on pride and tradition
Even though they know
Apathy can never solve
When it comes to someone else's fight
On reservations
Cry for the Indians
Cry, cry, cry for the Indians
Die for the Indians
War dance
Hold on to pride and tradition
Forced out, brave and mighty
How much their lives are really missin'
No one ever gets involved, no one
Cry for the Indians
Even though they know
Stolen land they can't fight it
Hatred and prejudice
