Half-Breed Songtext
My father married a pure Cherokee
My mother′s people were ashamed of me
The Indians said that I was white by law
The white man always called me Indian squaw
Half-breed, that's all I ever heard
Half-breed, how I learned to hate the word
Half-breed, she′s no good they warned
Both sides were against me since the day I was born
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"
Half-breed, that′s all I ever heard
Half-breed, how I learned to hate the word
Half-breed, she's no good they warned
Both sides were against me since the day I was born
My mother′s people were ashamed of me
The Indians said that I was white by law
The white man always called me Indian squaw
Half-breed, that's all I ever heard
Half-breed, how I learned to hate the word
Half-breed, she′s no good they warned
Both sides were against me since the day I was born
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"
Half-breed, that′s all I ever heard
Half-breed, how I learned to hate the word
Half-breed, she's no good they warned
Both sides were against me since the day I was born
