Lyrics

Whether you're a woman or whether you're a man Sometimes you got to take a stand Just because you think you can Oh, you got to run, you got to run Whether you're a woman or whether you're a man Sometimes you got to take a stand Just because you think you can Oh, you got to run, you got to run, run Trying against the odds, you're in a trance Say, who did you think you are to have a chance? You're a no one, from a place Where everyone knows your face You come and go and you know the sun So you better hang on and hey, you better run 'Cause here's your chance and your race has begun Down, in a hole You feel like two different people in your soul Feel like a loser, until you see That as you bend, you learn to be Your own best friend And you learned how and you learned when To take a chance on the spirit of the wind Hey ha, hey ha, ya hey, ya yo Hey, ha ha, hey ya way-a-way ha yo Hey, ha ha, hey ya way, ha ya way Hey, ha ha ha, hey ya way ya Whether you're a woman or whether you're a man Sometimes you got to take a stand Just because you think you can Oh, you got to run, you got to run, run Babe, ain't we been down? We've been so broken, been so low that I kissed the ground But you can see yourself a winner beyond the money and the greed Beyond the pride is a pure untested need And to be a champion is more than luck and speed It's power and freedom in the spirit of the wind Hey ha, hey ha, ya hey, ya yo Hey, ha ha, hey ya way-a-way ha yo Hey, ha ha, hey ya way, ha ya way Hey, ha ha ha, hey ya way ya Whether you're a woman or whether you're a man Sometimes you got to take a stand Just because you know you can Oh, you got to run, you got to run Hey ha, hey ha, ya hey, ya yo Hey, ha ha, hey ya way-a-way ha yo Hey, ha ha, hey ya way, ha ya way (Standing Rock!) Hey, ha, way, ha, way-a-way ya, oh!
