Yeah! Read the news in the talking leaves About some red-skinned woman who was weak at the knees For a blue-collared man with a six-shootin' pistol For the time of your life costs gold by the fistful Have you seen those Cherokee women? With feathers in their hair There's a name to every feather For the land that should be theirs For the fathers of the promised land That's why she took to the bed of the American man Who's fate decided by the head witch doctor He will die in the nest of the raven mocker Have you seen those Cherokee women? With feathers in their hair There's a name to every feather For the land that should be theirs She's got scars to show on her bull-whipped back And a ringin' in her ears from the sound of the crack In dawn, it shone through to marching men Who along this path might see the end Andrew Jackson, wait til' his back turns Then use this axe in a lethal fashion The dying words of an infant she raised She told to the many men she raped The crying trail - that's where she decreed With her body and an axe, she'd avenged the deceased How wide can you grin with your scalp in your hand? Shoulda known better than to f*ck with her land Born an orphan To a dying breed Cry an ocean For sequoia seed Cherokee Cherokee Cherokee Cherokee woman
