Neil Young - Indian Givers Lyrics






There's a battle raging on the sacred land
Our brothers and sisters had to take a stand
Against us now for what we all been doin'
On the sacred land there's a battle brewin'

I wish somebody would share the news
I wish somebody would share the news
I wish somebody would share the news

Now it's been about 500 years

We keep taking what we gave away
Just like what we call Indian givers
It makes you sick and gives you shivers

I wish somebody would share the news
I wish somebody would share the news
I wish somebody would share the news
I wish somebody would share the news

Big money going backwards and ripping the soil

Where graves are scattered and blood was boiled
When all who look can see the truth
But they just move on and keep their groove

I wish somebody would share the news
I wish somebody would share the news
I wish somebody would share the news

Saw Happy locked to the big machine

They had to cut him loose and you know what that means
That's when Happy went to jail
Behind big money justice always fails

I wish somebody would share the news
I wish somebody would share the news
I wish somebody would share the news
I wish somebody would share the news

Bring back the days when good was good

Lose these imposters in our neighborhood
Across our farms and through our waters
All at the cost of our sons and squaw daughters
Yeah our brave sons and daughters

We're all here together fighting poison waters
Standing against the evil way
That's what we have at the end of day

I wish somebody would share the news
I wish somebody would share the news
I wish somebody would share the news
I wish somebody would share the news

    The quintessential hippy!
    Not sold out (don't gimme trivia). Still living the dream. I don't love all his stuff but I utterly respect it and the man. A real musician/artist has a social conscience & uses it. Ie John lennon, woody guthrie Willie Nelson to name a few. Keep going Neil x

    J écoute et j entend chanter Neil Young depuis mon berceau et c est un Indien solide comme un rock et immortel qui envoie de magnifiques signaux de fumée qui nous permettent de rêver une danse universelle autour d un superbe feu sacré . For me you are not the loner you are GOD. Un jour viendra et le Monde changera en mieux et il faut que tous les colibris éteignent avec leurs petites gouttes d eau au bec les incendies et que le Monde brille avec nos cœurs retrouvés et réunis. I HOPE AND WANT A BETTER WORLD LIKE YOU MY FRIENDS. LOVE AND PEACE FOREVER

    Thank you God for Neil Young

    My brother lives near where they were protesting. These were not peaceful protesters. They were violent and caused millions of dollars in damage to the equipment and left the place a filthy mess, looking like the aftermath from Woodstock. Even the Indian reservation told them to leave. Many were paid protesters, and had no Native American blood. They were a disgrace.

    l.... ....

    what the white man did to the Indians is the real disgrace. if they don't like the mess or the damage to their equipment, they should do the right thing and go back to their own countries!

    Thank you Neil, for being real. Honest. For pulling no punches. For using your talents to speak truth to power. Thanks, my brother, my friend.

  38. D.... J....

    Trump repeats what we did to the Indians when our people first came here 500 years ago. Behind big money justice always fails. Truth. I was so happy when it was announced the project was shut down. And now the orange one gives it the go ahead. We are a shameful people. We follow the smell of money. It will be our end. When will you people see this??

  39. A.... B....

    We can thank Neil for sharing the news. This will never get air play but Neil has such a large fan base that it will still help spread the word. So sad to see the soil being ripped.

  40. J.... T....

    I share fellow human😎😉😇

  41. T.... ....

    "Behind big money Justice will always lose"

    Wow how true is that

  42. C.... C....

    Neil, I feel ya. You are so real. As someone who has grown up with your music on radio, vinyl, cassette tapes to CD's and DVD"s, not to mention attending many of your concerts over a 40 year span, I want to personally thank you for being You. This particular subject is something that I care deeply about. We are bringing this issue to light in our family; enlightening the younger generations, from the 30 yr olds, down to our 3--yr old niece of our niece. Peace and love to you, and thanks for being such an inspiring influence on our journey.

    Neal Young to the rescue! I have been waiting for someone to make a song for this difficult time in history which includes climate change denial and the age of corporate control of government.

  62. B.... A....

    So very proud that i wouldn't even know about this except for the fact that my best friend's passionate son was there in protest. Lincoln B., my hat is off to you!! Let's "share the news"!! You rock!

  63. K.... K....

    America - that is where they celebrate Thanksgiving Day, celebrating mass murder, theft of land and property, degradation of others, sexual assault of indigenous women, slavery, et cetra - from celebrities, to school teachers, to pastors and politicians, do they such, and mark themselves as the children of the devil, for the deeds of their father will they do.
    Holiness, they do not desire, whilst they say
    to each other, Jesus would make us holy if He
    so desired, wherefore we will continue in sin,
    while mocking them who would strive to be
    made perfect in love. That, is their way.

  64. c.... ....

    I'm native from Oklahoma. Grew up listening to NY and Crazyhorse. Harvest Moon is a special song in my life. Thanks for brining more attention to the cause.

    Hats off to Neil Young for taking a stand. Truth and love will prevail in the end. And blessings and prayers to the protesters for their courage and having their hearts in the right place. Native people have been our leaders in this struggle... but the issues transcend racial, national or political boundaries. It's a struggle of light and darkness in which new united humanity will be born.
