GHOST DANCER

Verse One:

Break my heart, crush my bones, scatter my people, take away their homes.
Take my spirit, take my soul and in my hands, I find a beggars bowl.

Ghost Dancer we know just who they are.

Verse Two:

We had freedom, like a bird on the wing, such a simple life, such a precious thing.
Great White Brother from lands afar; they carried off our women and gave us whiskey in a jar.

Ghost Dancer, we know just who they are.

Verse Three:

They killed the buffalo and the sacred springs, brought death and destruction to nearly everything.
The drums they are drumming, all over this land speaking a language, the white man cannot understand.

Ghost Dancer, we know just who you are.

INSTRUMENTAL:

Verse Four:

Break my heart, crush my bones, scatter my people, take away their homes.
Take my spirit, take my soul and in my hands I find a beggars bowl.

Ghost Dancer, we know just who you are.
