Well I was a red man I was proud, I was strong You were the white man And you stole away my home Now I am a wooden Indian Painted dreams inside my head Times the way you bring me down Make me wish that I was dead Na na na na nana..... Ay, I was a red man In my passing made no sound You were the white man And you drove me in the ground Now I am a wooden Indian Standing silent in the rain Swear BY my grandfather's father We're gonna rise again Na na na Ay, I was a red man I was proud, I was strong You were the white man And you stole away my home Now I am a wooden Indian Standing silent in the rain Swear by my grandfather's father We're gonna rise again
