Crow has brought the message

To the children of the sun

For the return of the buffalo

And for a better day to come



You can kill my body

You can damn my soul

For not believing in your god

And some world down below



You don't stand a chance

Against my prayers

You don't stand a chance

Against my love

They outlawed the ghost dance

But we shall live again

We shall live again



My sister above

She has red paint

She died at wounded knee

Like a later day saint



You got the big drum in the distance

Blackbird in the sky

That's the sound that you hear

When the buffalo cry



You don't stand a chance

Against my prayers

You don't stand a chance

Against my love

They outlawed the ghost dance

But we shall live again

We shall live again



Crazy horse was a mystic

He knew the secret of the trance

And sitting bull the great apostle

Of the ghost dance



Come on comanche

Come on blackfoot

Come on shoshone

Come on cheyenne



We shall live again



Come on arapaho

Come on cherokee

Come on paiute

Come on sioux



We shall live again
