Bruce Cockburn Red Brother Red Sister Lyrics

Red Brother Red Sister Lyrics

Went to the museum, red brother

Saw your ancient bloom cut, pressed and
dried

A sign said wasn't it clever what they used to do

But it
never did say how they died 



Hey hey hey

Hey hey hey 



Went to Regina, red sister

Heard a cab driver say what he'd
seen

"There's a grand place to eat out on Number One

All white
ladies if you know what I mean" 



Hey hey hey

Hey hey hey 



Went to a pow wow, red brother

Felt the people's lovejoy flow
around

It left me crying just thinking about it

How they used my
saviour's name to keep you down 



Hey hey hey

Hey hey hey
