3
I am Lakota!
4
Lakota!
5
Looking at money man--
6
Diggin' the deadly quotas--
7
Out of balance--
8
Out of hand
9
We want the land!
10
Lay down the reeking ore!
11
Don't you hear the shrieking in the trees?
12
Everywhere you touch the earth--she's sore
13
Every time you skin her all things weep
14
Your money mocks us--
15
Restitution--what good can it do?--
16
Kennelled in metered boxes
17
Red dogs in debt to you
18
I am Lakota!
19
Lakota!
20
Fighting among ourselves
21
All we can say with one whole heart
22
Is we won't sell--
23
No we'll never sell
24
We want the land!
25
The lonely coyote calls
26
In the woodlands--footprints of the deer
27
In the barrooms--poor drunk bastard falls
28
In the courtrooms--deaf ears--sixty years
29
You think we're sleeping--but
30
Quietly like rattlesnakes and stars
31
We have seen the trampled rainbows
32
In the smoke of cars
33
I am Lakota
34
Brave
35
Sun pity me
36
I am Lakota
37
Broken
38
Moon pity me
39
I am Lakota
40
Grave
41
Shadows stretching
42
Lakota
43
Oh pity me
44
I am Lakota
45
Weak
46
Grass pity me
47
I am Lakota
48
Faithful
49
Rocks pity me
50
I am Lakota
51
Meek
52
Standing water
53
Lakota
54
Oh pity me
55
I am Lakota!
56
Lakota!
57
Standing on sacred land
58
We never sold these Black Hills
59
To the missile-heads--
60
To the power plants
61
We want the land!
62
The bullet and the fence--broke Lakota
63
The black coats and the booze--broke Lakota
64
Courts that circumvent--choke Lakota
65
Nothing left to lose
66
Tell me grandfather
67
You spoke the fur and feather tongues--
68
Do you hear the whimpering waters
69
When the tractors come?
70
Repeat Chorus
71
Sun pity me
72
Mother earth
73
Mother
74
Moon pity me
75
Father sky
76
Father
77
Shadows
78
Stretching on the forest floor
79
Mother earth
80
Oh pity me
81
Father sky
82
Father
83
Grass pity me
84
Mother earth
85
Mother
86
Rocks pity me
87
Father sky
88
Father
89
Water
90
Standing in a wakan manner
91
Mother earth
92
Oh pity me
