Wounded Knee
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.
We were all
Wounded
At wounded knee
You and me
We were all
Wounded
At wounded knee
You and me
In the name of
Manifest destiny
You and me
You and me
You and me
They made us many promises
But always broke their word
They penned us in like Buffalo
Drove us like a heard
And finally on the reservation
We were going for our preservation
We were all wiped out
By the seventh Calvary
You and me
You and me
We were all
Wounded
At wounded knee
You and me
We were all
Wounded
At wounded knee
You and me
In the name of
Manifest destiny
You and me
You and me
You and me
Now we make our promises
We won't break our word
Well sing, sing, sing out our story
Till the truth is heard
There's a whole new generation
Which will dream of veneration
Who were not wiped out
By the seventh Calvary
You and me
You and me
We were all
Wounded
At wounded knee
You and me
We were all
Wounded
At wounded knee
You and me
We were all
Wounded
By wounded knee
