Comanche Moon

from Buffalo Blood by Buffalo Blood

lyrics

Took away our humanity
They took away my family
This land is for the white man
They don’t want us among them
Took away our humanity

To them we’re all just savages
They destroyed our villages
But they tell a different story
Of honour and glory
To them we’re all just savages

Chorus
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh Comanche Moon

Told us their god would set us free
Then took away our liberty
Now a divided nation
Stuck on this reservation
They told us their god would set us free

Chorus

Now there’s nowhere left to go
No trees, no elk, no buffalo
Just sickness and starvation
A forgotten nation
Nowhere left to go

Chorus
