It's Gone Lyrics

Jimmy Lafave It's Gone

We used to sleep in tall grass prairie
We used to roam out on the plain
Part of a great big Indian nation
Now ain’t it a shame

Listen listen
Listen it’s gone

We tried to treat you as our brother
You slowly drove us from the land
You broke all your worthless treaties
But you don’t understand

Listen listen
Listen it’s gone

I see the buffalo returning
I hear a ghost dance in the night
I pray a healing for this nation
Let’s make it right

Listen listen
Listen it’s gone
