Words and Music by John D.
Loudermilk
They took the whole
Cherokee nation
Put us on this
reservation
Took away our ways of life
The
tomahawk and the bow and knife
Took away our
native tongue
And taught their English to our
young
And all the beads we made by hand
Are
nowadays made in Japan
Cherokee people,
Cherokee tribe
So proud to live, so proud to
die
They took the whole Indian
nation
Locked us on this reservation
Though
I wear a shirt and tie
I’m still part redman
deep inside
Cherokee people, Cherokee
tribe
So proud to live, so proud to
die
But maybe someday when they
learn
Cherokee nation will return, will
return, will return, will return, will
return
