Indian Wars - Bruce Cockburn[00:00:00]

Out in the desert where the wind never stops[00:00:39]

A few simple people try to grow a few crops[00:00:47]

Trying to maintain a life and a home[00:00:57]

On land that was theirs before the Romans thought of Rome[00:01:06]

A few dozen survivors ragged but proud[00:01:18]

With a few woolly sheep under gathering cloud[00:01:26]

It's never been easy or free from strife[00:01:36]

But the pulse of the land is the pulse of their life[00:01:46]

You thought it was over but it's just like before[00:01:56]

Will there never be an end to the Indian wars [00:02:07]

You thought it was over but it's just like before[00:02:16]

Will there never be an end to the Indian wars [00:02:27]

It's not breech-loading rifles and wholesale slaughter[00:02:55]

It's kickbacks and thugs and diverted water[00:03:05]

Treaties get signed and the papers change hands[00:03:15]

But they might as well draft these agreements in sand[00:03:24]

Noble Savage on the cinema screen[00:03:35]

An Indian's good when he cannot be seen[00:03:44]

And the so-called white so-called race[00:03:53]

Digs for itself a pit of disgrace[00:04:04]

You thought it was over but it's just like before[00:04:14]

Will there never be an end to the Indian wars [00:04:24]

You thought it was over but it's just like before[00:04:33]

Will there never be an end to the Indian wars [00:04:45]

Will there never be an end to the Indian wars [00:04:55]
