Johnny Horton "Cherokee Boogie" |
(Moon Mullican - William C. Redbird) Oh, a Cherokee chief as he dances along He sings an indian boogie to a white man's song Singing he-ho-a-lena, singing he-ho-a-lena Singing he-ho-a-lena, oh-oh, na-which-a-na-hey. Well, he dances over here and he dances over there Now he's dancing with a squaw called Standing Bear Singing he-ho-a-lena, singing he-ho-a-lena Singing he-ho-a-lena, oh-oh, na-which-a-na-hey. --- Instrumental --- Well, he dances on a hill and he dances on a rock But he keeps on shaking his ol' tomahawk Singing he-ho-a-lena, singing he-ho-a-lena Singing he-ho-a-lena, oh-oh, na-which-a-na-hey. Well, he sings a little soft and he sings a little loud And his tom-tom beatin' so big and proud Singing he-ho-a-lena, singing he-ho-a-lena Singing he-ho-a-lena, oh-oh, na-which-a-na-hey. --- Instrumental --- Well, he dances over here and he dances over there Now he's dancing with a squaw called Standing Bear Singing he-ho-a-lena, singing he-ho-a-lena Singing he-ho-a-lena, oh-oh, na-which-a-na-hey. Now he's a Cherokee cheif as a you all might know When he keeps on a singing nuven-yo Singing he-ho-a-lena, singing he-ho-a-lena Singing he-ho-a-lena, oh-oh, na-which-a-na-hey...
