Lyrics

[Verse 1] My father married a Cherokee My mother's people were ashamed of me The Indian's said that I was white by law The white man always called me Indian Squaw [Chorus] Half breed Is all I ever heard Half breed Let me hate the word Half breed She's no good they warned Both sides were against me since the day I was born [Verse 2] 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] [Verse 3] We weren't accepted and I felt the shame Fifteen I left and tell me whose to blame My life since then has been from man to man But I can't run away from what I am [Chorus][x2]
