Molly Hatchet - Tatanka Lyrics
Seven seas seven skiesLightning strikes and brave men dieTatanka great, tatanka smallWhen darkness comes they kill them allTatankaYou take what you want but you dont askYoure future doesnt lie with things of the pastThe search for freedom will never be foundAs long as we stand upon this sacred groundThe curse of the curses upon the landOne day tatanka will make a standTake back the soul of mother natureGive back the spirit of a world endangeredTatanka comes, stand and deliverThe souls of the brave lie on foreverThe tale of tears is a tale of courageTatanka comes from across the riverChorus repeatThe battles were fought and the damage was doneThe wars not over its just begunThe debt thats owed will never be payedThe promised land will never be savedThe curse of curses fire on the landToday tatanka has made a standTheir forefathers dreams, hopes, and visionThrough childrens eyes has it been forgivenChorus repeatLe lakota tolowan yeloChanni tatanka oyate kiIcic upi nahan taku unUmnipi nahan unkotipi kte kunLepa unk upeloWasicu ki ahi nahanWicakasota pi tkaTatanka tawowakan ki lenaHecenanhgluhapeloThis is a song for the lakotaLong time ago the buffaloNation gave themselvesSo we can survive andHave shelterThe white man cameAnd wiped them outBut we still have the spiritThe power of the buffaloTatanka comes, stand and deliverThe souls of the brave live foreverThe trail of the rears is a tale of courageTatanka comes, tatanka comes
