-
You think I'm an ignorant savage
-
And you've been so many places
-
I guess it must be so
-
But still I cannot see
-
If the savage one is me
-
How can there be so much that you don't know?
-
You don't know ...
-
You think you own whatever land you land on
-
The Earth is just a dead thing you can claim
-
But I know every rock and tree and creature
-
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
-
You think the only people who are people
-
Are the people who look and think like you
-
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
-
You'll learn things you never knew you never knew
-
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
-
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?
-
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains?
-
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
-
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
-
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
-
Come taste the sunsweet berries of the Earth
-
Come roll in all the riches all around you
-
And for once, never wonder what they're worth
-
The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
-
The heron and the otter are my friends
-
And we are all connected to each other
-
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends
-
How high will the sycamore grow?
-
If you cut it down, then you'll never know
-
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
-
For whether we are white or copper skinned
-
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountains
-
We need to paint with all the colors of the wind
-
You can own the Earth and still
-
All you'll own is Earth until
-
You can paint with all the colors of the wind
