Contextual Analysis of "cherokee" in Lyrics

and give us back our home

cherokee cry

start

it's got me wonderin' why those mighty winds of change must blow

i can't forget you

child of the prairie

start

we'll meet by the linden tree

they came down with a bag of skins. in the fall of the year of 1910

'bout the dirty little kid at his side. daddy didn't like what the white man did

know a g'

used to be

well

sings an indian boogie to a white man's song

i got outlaw in my bones and jim beam in a lot of my songs

there's a whole lot hank underneath this hat of mine

start

my mother's people were ashamed of me

i'm a western north carolinean made of stone and red clay soil

i left my home across the mountains to see what kind of life i'd find

always travel in groups of ten

cherokee trail

always travel in groups of ten

cherokee trail

but there was a time when the land was free

stood proud

hey

dance all wild and then romance

ill repute just started playing the last song that they're playing

what comes around will go around

we're blood brothers

quarter shawnee

everywhere i look i see

you're a bully and a clown

bong rips taking long trips

cruise the day 'til the stars peak

nel dopoguerra non c'era chi

non c'erano tv colme di nembo kid

on great rafts to the mississippi

and the creek and the ojibwa
