Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee - Studio Version - Edit

[00:00.86] Indian legislation's on the desk of a do-right congressman
[00:06.23] And he don't know much about the issues so he picks up the phone
[00:10.87] And asks the advice of the senator out in Indian Country
[00:15.33] A darling of the energy companies
[00:19.06] Ripping off what's left of the reservation
[00:26.61] I learned the safety rule
[00:29.08] I don't know who to thank
[00:31.33] Don't stand between the reservation
[00:34.06] And the corporate bank
[00:36.07] They're sending federal tanks
[00:38.81] It isn't nice but it's reality
[00:44.90] Bury my heart at Wounded Knee
[00:49.93] I said deep in the earth
[00:54.53] Won't you cover me with pretty lies
[00:59.27] Bury my heart at Wounded Knee
[01:04.92] We got these energy companies
[01:07.64] Who want to take the land
[01:09.84] And we got churches by the dozens
[01:12.33] Trying to guide our hands
[01:14.70] And turn our mother earth
[01:16.49] Over to pollution war and greed
[01:21.89] No, no-oh-oh

[01:55.87] Still Leonard Peltier goes off to jail (my heart)
[01:59.88] The bullets don't match the gun
[02:01.73] (Bury my heart at Wounded Knee)
[02:04.50] An eighth of the reservation
[02:06.74] (Bury my heart at Wounded Knee)
[02:09.10] Was transferred in secret
[02:11.42] (Bury my heart at Wounded Knee)
[02:13.93] We got your murder and intimidation
[02:16.14] (Bury my heart at Wounded Knee)
[02:21.84] My girlfriend Anna Mae
[02:24.02] Talked about uranium
[02:26.76] Her head was full of bullets
[02:29.49] And her body dumped
[02:31.76] The FBI cut off her hands
[02:33.99] And told us she died of exposure
[02:39.68] To bury my heart at Wounded Knee
[02:42.65] (Bury my heart at Wounded Knee)
[02:44.88] I said deep in the earth

[03:10.77]
[03:38.75] We had the gold rush wars
[03:41.21] Why didn't we learn to crawl?
[03:43.77] And now our history gets written in a liar's scrawl
[03:48.51] They tell me, "Don't be so uptight, I mean
[03:51.07] Honey, you can still be an Indian
