My Indian Red
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Mighty cooty fiyo, hey la hey, hey la hey
I've got a Big Chief, Big Chief, Big Chief of the Nation
Wild, wild creation
He won't bow down, down on the ground
Oh how I love to hear him call Indian Red
When I throw my net in the river
I will take only what I need
Just enough for me and my lover
I will take only what I need
Mighty cooty fiyo, hey la hey, hey la hey
Mighty cooty fiyo, hey la hey, hey la hey
Mighty cooty fiyo, hey la hey, hey la hey
Mighty cooty fiyo, hey la hey, hey la hey
