Lyrics

Written by: Diana Jones

When they signed the papers
they didn't think I knew
didn't think I understood
what they were told to do
by some white man that came by
the reservation one night

I've been in the state school
for ten years or so
the teachers do their rounds
and they are mostly kind you know
but the language ain't the same
they cut my hair and changed my name

(chorus)
My daddy called my pony
he loved me I know
we went riding in the snow
pony

Winter in Dakota
the hills are cold and white
I can close my eyes
and fix them plainly in my sight
and I see them in my sleep
through the window of my dreams

(chorus)

When the dorm is dark and still
if I listen with my heart
I can almost hear that name
hear it echo on the plain
hear him whisper
we can leave this world behind

I heard about the moonshine
how it cut him down
when mama came to visit
she said that's why he don't come around
some things I know for sure
like it's 1924

(chorus)
