They don’t like him cause through all
His veins runs Cherokee blood
They don’t like him having drinks
With a white girl in a white club
Apparently he doesn’t quite seem
To fit into their Cadillac dream
But I don’t share their bloody minds
Bout the native American child

Red red
Indian drums can’t you hear the sound in the darkness
Red red
Indian drums miles away from here in the darkness
Sending out the heartbeat of the whole red generation
Fascination
Revelation

Red red
Indian drums calling me tonight
Red red
Indian drums calling me Tonight
He has got the prairie Sun in every sweet sweet smile
And he has got the rhythm of the universe deep inside
He would teach me to live to laugh to love to forgive
I don’t care what people say
I'm in love with a Cherokee man

Red red
Indian drums can’t you hear the sound in the darkness
Red red
Indian drums miles away from here in the darkness
Sending out the heartbeat of the whole red generation
Fascination
Revelation

Red red
Indian drums calling me tonight
Red red
Indian drums calling me Tonight

And the stars will paint a picture
And the wind will sing of love
And the grass will be our pillow
Our blanket skies above

Red red
Indian drums can’t you hear the sound in the darkness
Red red
Indian drums miles away from here in the darkness
Sending out the heartbeat of the whole red generation
Fascination
Revelation

Red red
Indian drums calling me tonight
Red red
Indian drums calling me tonight
Red red
Indian drums calling me tonight
