I am Lakota!
Lakota!
Looking at money man--
Diggin' the
deadly quotas--
Out of balance--
Out of hand
We want the land!
Lay down the reeking ore!
Don't you hear
the shrieking in
the trees?
Everywhere you
touch the
earth--she's sore
Every time you
skin her all
things weep
Your money mocks us--
Restitution--what
good can it do?--
Kennelled in metered boxes
Red dogs in debt to you
I am Lakota!
Lakota!
Fighting among ourselves
All we can say with
one whole heart
Is we won't sell--
No we'll never sell
We want the land!
The lonely coyote calls
In the
woodlands-
- f o o t
p r ints
of the
deer
In the
barrooms--poor
drunk bastard
falls
In the
courtrooms--de
a f
ears--sixty
years
You think we're
sleeping--but
Quietly like
rattlesnakes and
stars
We have seen the
trampled rainbows
In the smoke of cars
I am Lakota
Brave
Sun pity me
I am Lakota
Broken
Moon pity me
I am Lakota
Grave
Shadows stretching
Lakota

I am Lakota
Weak
Grass pity me
I am Lakota
Faithful
Rocks pity me
I am Lakota
Meek
Standing water
Lakota
Oh pity me
I am Lakota!
Lakota!
Standing on sacred land
We never sold
these Black Hills
To the missile-heads--
To the power plants
We want the land!
The bullet and
the
fence--broke
Lakota
The black coats
and the
booze--broke
Lakota
Courts that
circumvent--choke
Lakota
Nothing left to lose
Tell me grandfather
You spoke the fur
and feather
tongues--
Do you hear the
whimpering waters
When the tractors come?
Repeat Chorus
Sun pity me
Mother earth
Mother
Moon pity me
Father sky
Father
Shadows
Stretching on the
forest floor
Mother earth
Oh pity me
Father sky
Father
Grass pity me
Mother earth
Mother
Rocks pity me
Father sky
Father
Water
Standing in a wakan manner
Mother earth
Oh pity me
