Native American — текст песни (Bruce Springsteen)

I am native american



Ho ka hey wah nah (steven and bruce)

Ho ka hey wah nah woh

Ho ka hey wah nah

Ho ka hey wah nah woh

Ho ka hey wah nah

Ho ka hey wah nah woh



(editors note: the above is war cry of the lakota(sioux) meaning

"lets go - now")



Life was forever when we were young (steven)

The land was protected for everyone (bruce)

Forever as long as the rivers run (both)

But now the water no longer comes (steven)



And now all that remains (both)

Is darkness a poisoned earth

And now before its too late

We must provide our own new birth



Chorus:

I am native american

I am native american



The question of honor you must decide (bruce)

The soul of the nation has been denied (steven)

Our dreams have been stolen before our eyes (both)

How do you say theres no tomorrow to a child? (bruce)



>from us there is much to learn (both)

There is so much youve forgotten

You cant change me

Try and understand I am proud of who I am



Chorus:

I am native american

I am native american



We must try and remember what were here for (steven)

You will suffer the darkness alone no more (bruce)

You will have the strength of all of us

Gathered here today (both)

That is something they can never take away (bruce)



Chorus:

I am native american

I am native american



Ho ka hey wah nah (steven and bruce)

Ho ka hey wah nah woh
