I Was Raised

Lyrics

[Intro] Aah aloh aah aloa aah Aah aloh aah aloa aah Aloh aloh aloh aloh aah Aloh aloh aloh aloh aah Aey yeh lah hoh [Verse 1] As a young Indian boy I was raised In the true Indian way Free as the wind On wings of white clouds Those were happy days [Pre-Chorus] I saw beauty I saw pain The winter snow And summer rain I saw death I saw birth The red of the night And the green of Earth [Chorus] I was raised With wise spoken words And gentle hands I was raised By the splendor of life And became a man [Verse 2] As a young Indian boy I was raised With nature as my guide Free as a fawn Along the mountainside Among the butterflies [Pre-Chorus] I would chant I would pray Sometimes work Sometimes play I would laugh I would cry Some of us lived And some of us died [Chorus] I was raised With wise spoken words And gentle hands I was raised By the splendor of life And became a man [Post-Chorus] I knew no hate Of human beings Only love And simple things Bathing naked In a stream I saw no shame In running free [Outro] I was raised in Indian ways I was raised in Indian ways I was raised in Indian ways I was raised in Indian ways I was raised in Indian ways I was raised in Indian ways I was raised I was raised I was raised I was raised I was raised I was raised
