Lyrics:

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-oh-oh
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
(Bury my heart at Wounded Knee)
We got the federal marshals
We got the covert spies (bury my heart)
We got the liars by the fire (bury my)
And the FBI (heart)
They lie in court and get nailed and (bury)
Still Leonard Peltier goes off to jail (my heart)
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 Mae
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 (hey) a revolution
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))
Bury my heart at Wounded Knee
(Bury my heart at Wounded Knee (bury my heart at))
(Bury my)
It was an eighth of the reservation (heart, bury)
Yeah, that was transferred in secret (my heart, bury my)
Got your murder, murder, murder and intimidation (heart, bury)
Bury me, bury me (my heart)
Bury me
Bury my heart
Bury my heart
Bury my heart
Bury my heart
