Paul Revere & The Raiders Lamont Of Cherokee Reservation Lyrics

Revised Edition

They took the whole Cherokee nation

Put us on a redervation

Took away our ways of life

The tomahawk and the bow and knife

Took away our native tongue
N' taught their English to our young

And all the beads were made by hand

Our nowadays made in Japan

Cherokee people
Cherokee tribe
So proud you lived
So proud you die

They took the whole indian nation

Lockedd us on this resevation Though I wear a shirt an tie

I'm still Red Man dep inside

Cherokee people
Cherokee tribe
So proud you live
So proud you die

But maybe someday when they"ve learned

Cherokee nation will return
Will return
Will return
Will return
Will return...

----------ed of song. I had a better chance to hear it slowly. I got the words right this time. I maybe 65 but I do a job right. Thanks
