I'm an Indian Too Songtext

von Irving Berlin

[1st refrain]
Like the Seminole, Navajo, Kickapoo
Like those Indians
I'm an Indian too
A Sioux ooh ooh!
A Sioux ooh ooh!

Just like Battle Axe, Hatchet Face, Eagle Nose
Like those Indians
I'm an Indian too
A Sioux ooh ooh!
A Sioux ooh ooh!

Some Indian summer's day
Without a sound
I may hide away
With Big Chief Hole-in-the-Ground

And I'll have totem poles, tomahawks, small papoose
Which will go to prove
I'm an Indian too
A Sioux ooh ooh!
A Sioux

[Patter]
With my chief in his teepee
We'll raise an Indian family
And I'll be busy night and day
Looking like a flour sack
With two papooses on my back
And three papooses on the way

[2nd refrain]
Like the Chippewa, Iroquois, Omaha
Like those Indians
I'm an Indian too
A Sioux ooh ooh!
A Sioux ooh ooh!

Just like Rising Moon, Falling Pants, Running Nose
Like those Indians
I'm an Indian too
A Sioux ooh ooh!
A Sioux ooh ooh!

Some Indian summer's day
Without a care
I may run away
With Big Chief Son-of-a-Bear

And I'll wear moccasins, wampum beads, feather hats
Which will go to prove
I'm an Indian too
A Sioux ooh ooh!
A Sioux

[Alternate line]
And I'll have totem poles, tomahawks, pipes of peace
