Bruce Springsteen - Native American lyrics

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 "let's 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 it's 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 there's no tomorrow to a child? (bruce) >from us there is much to learn (both) There is so much you've forgotten You can't 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 we're 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 Repeat 7 more times til fade
