My Father Married A Pure Cherokee my Mother's People Were Ashamed Of Me the Indians Said I Was White By Law the White Man Always Called Me 'indian Squaw'
chorus half-Breed, That's All I Ever Heard half-Breed, How I Learned To Hate The Word half-Breed, She's No Good They Warned both Sides Were Against Me Since The Day I Was Born
we Never Settled, Went From Town To Town when You're Not Welcome You Don't Hang Around the Other Children Always Laughed At Me 'give Her A Feather, She's A Cherokee'
chorus
we Weren't Accepted And I Felt Ashamed nineteen I Left Them, Tell Me Who's To Blame my Life Since Then Has Been From Man To Man but I Can't Run Away From What I Am
