Went to the museum, red brother
Saw your ancient bloom cut, pressed and dried
A sign said wasn't it clever what they used to do
But it never did say how they died

Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey

Went to Regina, red sister
Heard a cab driver say what he'd seen
"There's a grand place to eat out on Number One
All white ladies if you know what I mean"

Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey

Went to a pow wow, red brother
Felt the people's joy flow around
It left me crying just thinking about it
How they used my Savior's name to keep you down

Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
