I see the snowflakes fallin'
I hear the drumbeat callin'
I am just only lonely Indian girl
Braver than all the braves now
I sit at every pow-wow
I fought a million men for Indian girl
Ten hides and twenty horses
That's what the tribal law says
Too much for me to pay for Indian girl
Oh, sun shine on sun shine on
And take my darkness away
Oh, sun shine on sun shine on
And bring this girl my way
Far from her lonely teepee
Wind sends her sweetness to me
Too much for me to bear my Indian girl
Gather your things together
And bring your wedding feather
We'll steal away forever Indian girl
Oh, sun shine on sun shine on
The path that leaves away
Oh, sun shine on sun shine on
This our brightest day
