"A Stolen Jewel" lyrics

"A Stolen Jewel"

Whiteman is tradin' land and gems
Goin' down that river again
He's goin' down
Whiteman is takin' everything he can
Though he doesn't know it and
He's goin' down

He goin' down, down, down, down, down
He goin' down that lonesome river again
He goin' down, down, down, down, down
Goin' down that river again

Whiteman ain't got himself a disease
Takin' everything he please
Yeah he's goin' down
White man ain't got himself no friends
He'll use you to the end
Yeah he's goin down

He goin' down, down, down, down, down
He goin' down that lonesome river again
He goin' down, down, down, down, down
Goin' down that river again

He goin' down, down, down, down, down
He goin' down that lonesome river again
He goin' down, down, down, down, down
Goin' down that river again

Whiteman is tradin' land and gems
Goin' down that river again
He's goin' down
Whiteman is takin' everything he can
Though he doesn't know it and
He's goin' down

He goin' down that lonesome river again
He goin' down that lonesome river again
He goin' down that river that never ends
