Lyrics

Chorus
They take my land
They take my pride
They pollute my rivers
They take
One more stride
He-ya hey-ya hey-ya, ho!
Yo-he-yo, yo-he-yo.
Verse
I live in a world
Not of my own
My pain is too great
While they break my bones
I once rode the buffalo
Through this mighty land
Free atop in wonder
All at my command
Chorus
They take my land
They take my pride
They pollute my rivers
They take
One more stride
He-ya hey-ya hey-ya, ho!
Yo-he-yo, yo-he-yo.
Verse
Wash over me now
My sacred river of old
Fear not what comes
Be brave my son
This day is told.
I drink their drugs
The poison they fill
My clan is now
Less than swill
Bridge
They silence our drums, but the echoes remain,
They shatter our bones, but they cannot chain.
The storm is near, the wind will swell,
Their darkest night — our day will tell.
Outro
My name is Maskwa
None of your concern
Only my people know
How much it burns
Chorus
They take my land
They take my pride
They pollute my rivers
They take
One more stride
He-ya hey-ya hey-ya, ho!
Yo-he-yo, yo-he-yo.
Hey
