Half Breed lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Half Breed lyrics My father married a pure Cherokee My mother s people were ashamed of me The indians said I was white by law The White Man always called me "Indian Squaw" [CHORUS:] 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" [Repeat Chorus] We weren t accepted and I felt ashamed Nineteen I left them, tell me who s to blame My life since then has been from man to man But I can t run away from what I am [Repeat chorus] song lyrics
