My Father married a pure Cherokee.
My Mother's people were ashamed of me.

The Indians said that I was white by law.
The white man always called me "Indian squaw".

Half~breed, that's all I ever heard.
Half~breed, how I learned to hate the word.

Half~breed, she's no good they warned.
Both sides were against me since the day I was born.

We never settled, went from town to town.
When you're not welcome you don't hang around.

The other children always laughed at me.
"Give her a feather, she's a Cherokee".

Half~breed, that's all I ever heard.
Half~breed, how I learned to hate the word.

Half~breed, she's no good they warned.
Both sides were against me since the day I was born.

We weren't accepted and I felt ashamed.
Nineteen I left them, tell me who's to blame.

My life since then has been from man to man.
But I can't run away from what I am.

Half~breed, that's all I ever heard.
Half~breed, how I learned to hate the word.

Half~breed, she's no good they warned.
Both sides were against me since the day I was born.

Half~breed, that's all I ever heard.
Half~breed, how I learned to hate the word.

Half~breed, she's no good they warned.
Both sides were against me since the day I was born.
