Redbone - Jerico Lyrics

I come from a huge family and my oldest siblings and parents were born in Maniwakie Québec
Of course more than half the people are natives !!
I was born in Ottawa Canada so why do I feel I have so much connection with the native ??

all female group fanny were class

Love it!

Timeless.

Have loved this Band from the first record. Lolly was so handsome! First Native American group to make it big. Then there was the Great Jessie Ed Davis, RIP! What a fantastic guitar player. Drugs ruined him.

Hall of Fame is overdue! Check out Native Americans Redbone in documentary movie "RUMBLE: THE INDIANS WHO ROCKED THE WORLD". Listen to these wonderful Native American artists and check out their bio and hits at www.Redbone-Band.com

Holy Cow niiice!!

I love how LOLLY tells the story of his and Pat's life in JERICHO...
I wish that I could have met LOLLY, but he was before my time...
May you forevermore sing with the ANGELS sweet LOLLYPOP... RIP..
💞💞💞🍭🍭🍭❤❤❤🎶🎶🎶

Check out these Native American wonders in movie "Rumble: The Indians Who Rocked the World" or go to www.Redbone-Band.com --Or listen to Halloween favorite: "Witch Queen of New Orleans". Amazing!

I knew this Mexican-American friend who I remember telling me he had gone to school with Pat and Lolly at Edison High. Back then the school was largely African-American. He told me, "Shit, those guys aren't anymore indian than I am."
But, if they wanted to identify as Native-American that's up to them, I feel.

I'm an Australian and recently discovered my Apache genes on my Dad's side very proud.

I LOVE THIS BAND, THEY ARE SO FULL OF MEANING IN ALL OF THEIR SONGS, I CAN NEVER GET TIRED OF THEM. GOD BLESS THEM FOREVER!

Osiyo ginalli... wado!

💪🏾✊🏾

Wish we smoke peace pipe - solve. Stuff

what a great song,,, they were so far above many others in songwriting, even above themselves, they never equalled their 1969-1973 period, i bought their record with borrowed money as a 10 year old

Isn't that Rooster instead of Pete Devoe at :23?

I grew up in Fresno and drove on Snake Road and lived by the city dump.

First Native American rock band REDBONE wrote Witch Queen of New Orleans, Wovoka, Come and Get Your Love, Tennessee Girl, One Monkey. Custer Had it Coming Chant 13th Hour, Maggie Drinkin and Blo, Liquid Truth, Rebecca, We Were All Wounded at Wounded Knee, Fais Do, Wovoka, Tennessee Girl, "One more Time" (its in movie Person to Person), and check out Cindy Lauper "Hey Now Girls Just Wanna have Fun." - Lead singer Lolly Vegas co wrote it!

This one is timeless, like "Fais-Do," and so many others.

Lo siento no hablo ingles, solo Español o Frances

Esta canción es fantástica. ¡¡Guau!! Me preguntaba si esta canción era autobiográfica; Yo sabía que ellos crecieron en Fresno, pero se preguntó si era el vecindario de Jerico cuando crecieron. Esta canción es realmente conmovedora, describiendo las condiciones de los residentes de Jerico.

Bernie 10 i agree with you 100% 🇵🇷

@ John McCarroll: But they DO belong regardless of being Native/ Indigenous; and it's precisely BECAUSE they are Native/Indigenous that they aren't; you have to address racism; can't ignore it! They belong in RnR Hall of Fame based on their first album alone, much less their first five albums. We are NOT "all Americans;" we have NOT all shared the same lived reality. Native/ Indigenous peoples, Mexicans, African people did not come to Turtle Island to rape, steal, loot, plunder, and commit genocide; that was #wewhitepeople. So it DOES matter that a band who well should have been in the RnR Hall of Fame decades ago still is not, and that that band is Native/ Indigenous. #wewhitepeople have set the terms, stolen everything, and now want to call others "racist" for addressing racism? GTFOH w/ that bullshit. This band had their records banned, John McCarroll, for having the balls to write songs about the 1970 Occupation of Alcatraz Island by the Indians of All Tribes~ while it was happening mind you, (the song "Alcatraz" from their album "Potlatch") and for STILL writing about the liberation struggles of Native/ Indigenous peoples; writing in 1973 about the American Indian Movement's Occupation of Wounded Knee (the song "We Were All Wounded at Wounded Knee") and again the U.S. banning their records. So the band toured Europe and had success their before returning to the U.S. and releasing a hit #wewhitepeople could deal with: "Come and Get Your Love," AFTER five albums of some of the most kick-ass, badass, Cajun funk, Swamp-rock, jazz/ rock etc. you've ever heard in your life. But see, you don't want to know about that; you just want to ignore history so you can "feel good" about yourself. GTFOH John "I want to erase history that makes me uncomfortable" McCarroll. kthnxbye

Furthermore @ John McCarroll: this so-called "PC 'nonsense'" will stop when ALL LANDS are returned to the Native/ Indigenous peoples and reparations paid for centuries of #wewhitepeople and the United Snakes gov. committing genocide against Native / Indigenous peoples; it's not "PC nonsense" to address injustice and to demand justice; it's called integrity and balls. It's white nationalist nonsense to act like everything is just fine when it is not. THAT's pusillanimity. What YOU"RE doing.

I am Navaho Indian grew up in Fresno with Pat and Lolli

You sure you're Navajo? not sure on that.

@Spooky Girl Its all over the internet lol there is even a video of a family member talking about what they did was an act and there parents were from Mexico look it up!! And am actually Kickapoo!
