Bury My Heart Lyrics

Bury My Heart lyrics

When the day is done



I'm walking down the docks



Side by side with old companions



We sit down to watch the sunset



Over dirty rocks



We're sons of the ancient hunters



We are born for







Hunting game



Endless pain



There I want to stay







No more fish in the stream



The American Dream



Has destroyed the land of Indians



White man's money's ruling again



But we stand up to them



Talkin', smokin'



Visions will lead us the way



Goin' to







Mountains high



Eagles fly



There I want to die







I will rise and fall



Bury my heart



At Wounded Knee







They have slain my father's body



But his spirit is still alive



He rides across a sacred country



In freedom and eternal life



I will join him at his fire



Some day



It's my favorite desire



To hear the tale when he said







I will rise and fall



Bury my heart



At Wounded Knee
