Indigo Girls - Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee (live) lyrics

Indian legislation's on the desk of the do right congressman Now he don't know much about the issues so he picks up the phone And asks the advice of the senator out in indian country A darling of the energy companies their ripping off What's left of the reservation I learned the safety rule I don't know who to thank Don't stand between the reservation And the corporate bank They're sending federal tanks It isn't nice but it's reality Bury my heart at wounded knee Deep in the earth I said cover me with pretty lies Bury my heart at wounded knee They got these energy companies Who want to take the land And they got churches by the dozens Trying to guide our hands And turn our mother earth Over to pollution war and greed Well Bury my heart at wounded knee Bury my heart at wounded knee I said deep in the earth Bury my heart at wounded knee Won't you cover me with your pretty lies Bury my heart at wounded knee Bury my heart at wounded knee They got the federal marshalls We get the covert spies We get the liars by fire We get the fbi They lie in court and get nailed And still leonard peltier goes off to jail (the bullets don't match the gun) Bury my heart at wounded knee An eighth of the reservation Bury my heart at wounded knee It was transferred in secret Bury my heart at wounded knee We got your murder and intimidation Bury my heart at wounded knee My girlfriend anna may Talked about uranium Her head was full of bullets And her body dumped The fbi cut off her hands And told us she died of exposure Yeah right Bury my heart at wounded knee Bury my heart at wounded knee Oh deep in the earth Bury my heart at wounded knee Won't you cover me with pretty lies Bury my heart at wounded knee Bury my heart at wounded knee Bury my heart at wounded knee Talk about a revolution We had the gold rush wars Why didn't we learn to crawl? And now our history gets written in a liar's scrawl They tell me " honey you can still be an indian Down at the y on saturday night'' Bury my heart at wounded knee Bury my heart at wounded knee I said deep in the earth Bury my heart at wounded knee And cover me with your pretty lies Bury my heart at wounded knee Bury my heart at wounded knee Bury my heart It was an eighth of the reservation Bury my heart It was transferred in secret Bury my heart Got your murder, murder, murder and intimidation Bury me Bury me Bury me Bury my heart Bury my heart Bury my heart Bury my heart
