Testi musica canzoni

My father married a pure Cherokee

My mother's people were ashamed of me

The Indians said I was white by law

The white man always called me Indian Squaw

CHORUS:

Half-breed, that's all I ever heard

Half-breed, how I learned to hate the word

Half-breed, she's no good they warned

Both sides were against me since the day I was
born

We never settled, went from town to town

When you're not welcome you don't hang around

The other children always laughed at me

Give her a feather, she's a Cherokee

Chorus

We weren't accepted and I felt ashamed

Nineteen I left them, tell me who's to blame

My life since then has been from man to man

But I can't run away from what I am

Chorus
