indian legislation's on the desk of a do right Congressman
and he don't know much about the issues so he picks up the phone
and asks the advice of the senator out in indian country
a darling of the energy companies ripping off
what's left of the reservation

i learned the safety rule
i don't know who to thank
don't stand between the reservation
and the corporate bank
they're sending federal tanks
it isn't nice but it's reality

bury my heart at wounded knee
i said deep in the earth
won't you cover me with pretty lies
bury my heart at wounded knee

we got these energy companies
who want to take the land
and we got churches by the dozens
trying to guide our hands
and turn our mother earth
over to pollution war and greed
no no

bury my heart at wounded knee
bury my heart at wounded knee
i said deep in the earth
bury my heart at wounded knee
won't you cover me with pretty lies
bury my heart at wounded knee
bury my heart at wounded knee

we got the federal marshalls
we got the covert spies
we got the liars by fire
and the fbi
they lie in court and get nailed
and still leonard peltier goes off to jail
(the bullets don't match the gun)

bury my heart at wounded knee
an eighth of the reservation
bury my heart at wounded knee
was transferred in secret
bury my heart at wounded knee
we got your murder and intimidation
bury my heart at wounded knee

my girlfriend anna may
talked about uranium
her head was full of bullets
and her body dumped
the fbi cut off her hands
and told us she died of exposure

to bury my heart at wounded knee
bury my heart at wounded knee
i said deep in the earth
bury my heart at wounded knee
won't you cover me with your pretty lies
bury my heart at wounded knee
bury my heart at wounded knee
bury my heart at wounded knee
talk about a revolution
they stole my land
they won't steal my soul

we had the gold rush wars
why didn't we learn to crawl?
and now our history gets written in a liar's scrawl
they tell me "don't be so uptight
i mean honey you can still be an indian
down at the y on saturday night''

bury my heart at wounded knee
bury my heart at wounded knee
i said deep in the earth
bury my heart at wounded knee
won't you cover me with your pretty lies
bury my heart at wounded knee
bury my heart at wounded knee

bury my heart
it was an eighth of the reservation
bury my heart
yeah was transferred in secret
bury my heart
got your murder, murder, murder and intimidation
bury me
bury me
bury me
bury my heart
bury my heart
bury my heart
bury my heart
