Generate meaning
1
There we were, living on our island in the sun
2
Life was so easy, there was plenty for everyone
3
'Long come a white man who saw the milk and honey
4
Now we're making due while he's making all the money
5
Oh no, not a Wounded Knee
6
Another wheel stops rolling
7
Oh no, not a Wounded Knee again
8
There we were, living in our village in the trees
9
We were minding our own business,
10
We were doing as we please
11
'Long came a white man with attitudes and axes
12
Now we're doing overtime and paying lots of taxes
13
(Chorus)
14
The promises and gifts he brings
15
In honor of the songs he sings
16
Are tearing us apart
17
We were pow-wowing to our hearts content
18
We had the great spirit, we didn't need a president
19
'Long came a white man from the civilised nations
20
Now he ain't having second thoughts
21
But we've got reservations
22
Oh no, not a Wounded Knee
23
Another wheel stops rolling
24
Oh no, not a Wounded Knee
25
Another bell starts tolling
26
Oh no, not a Wounded Knee
27
Another people starts calling
28
Oh no, not a Wounded Knee again
