Cherokee Boogie

(albüm: The Spectacular Johnny Horton - 1959)

Well, a Cherokee chief as he dances along
Sings an Indian boogie to a white man's song
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina" ("Hey-ho-a-lina")
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina" ("Hey-ho-a-lina")
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina", oh oh no it's in our heads

Well, he dances over here and he dances over there
Now he's dancing with a squal called standing bear
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina" ("Hey-ho-a-lina")
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina" ("Hey-ho-a-lina")
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina", oh oh no it's in our heads

Well, he dances on the hill and he dances on the rock
But he keeps on shaking that tomohawk
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina" ("Hey-ho-a-lina")
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina" ("Hey-ho-a-lina")
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina", oh oh no it's in our heads

Well, he sings a little soft and he sings a little loud
With his tom-tom beating so big and proud
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina" ("Hey-ho-a-lina")
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina" ("Hey-ho-a-lina")
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina", oh oh no it's in our heads

Well, he dances over here and he dances over there
Now he's dancing with a squal called standing bear
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina" ("Hey-ho-a-lina")
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina" ("Hey-ho-a-lina")
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina", oh oh no it's in our heads

Now, he's a Cherokee chief as a you all might know
When he keeps on a singing nuven-yo
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina" ("Hey-ho-a-lina")
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina" ("Hey-ho-a-lina")
Singing, "Hey-ho-a-lina", oh oh no it's in our heads
